Testimonials

We looked at several survey tools. While we’d had prior experience with Holy Cow! Consulting, we still found your survey to be the most thorough and flexible. Moreover, you are established and have an excellent track record and reputation.

The most helpful part of the report was [t]he Transition Module gave us some ideas for actions the church can take on during the time we search for a new pastor. Also some ideas of the kind of pastor we should consider considering the results of the survey. (April 2021)

[The Congregation Assessment Tool] Is absolutely worth the investment for the experience and benchmarking data. ( April, 2021)

St. Peter’s Episcopal Church Fernandina Beach, FL

As Diocesan leaders, we have lots of tools, trainings, and programs to help congregations become more vital and effective, but without the clarity of the CAT, it’s hard to know which tools will be most useful for any given parish. Essentially, it was like throwing all the tools at congregations and hoping something would stick, a one-size-fits-all approach. The CAT has been a miracle in our work, enabling us to effectively work with each church in its uniqueness, choosing the tools that would be most effective for that individual congregation. It’s transformed how we approach congregational vitality in our Diocese, and it has transformed many churches in our Diocese as well, helping them to be more healthy. (April2021)

[Working with data from the Landscape] The biggest benefits have been: seeing attitudes and preferences in our judicatory across roles and time. We’re very satisfied with this experience, and it should be extremely helpful for us going forward.

Working with our consultant has been great. She’s very insightful, has responded quickly to every question, and in her presentation she found ways to contradict some of our assumptions in a very nice way. (March 2021)
