About

Lake Forest Church, located in North Carolina, began in 1998 with a mission to create a welcoming space where people could explore their faith without pretense or complex religious jargon. From its modest beginnings in a bowling alley backroom, the church has grown to encompass four campuses in Huntersville, Denver, and Davidson, along with a preschool program. This growth reflects their commitment to fostering an inclusive and supportive community.

Challenge

With numerous activities, programs, and operations, Lake Forest Church faced the daunting task of efficiently managing and analyzing feedback, applications, and registrations. Directors needed a way to process volunteer evaluations, analyze demographic information, and ensure each program—like the children’s ministry—met the needs of participants and volunteers. Manually sorting and visualizing this data consumed valuable time and resources.

Solution

Jotform Report Builder provided a game-changing solution for Lake Forest Church. By transforming form submissions into detailed, professional reports within seconds, Jenn could easily create presentations tailored to specific needs. Features like filtering responses allowed her to focus on relevant data, such as feedback from volunteers in distinct age groups within the children’s ministry.

Results

With Jotform, Lake Forest Church streamlined its data collection and reporting processes, saving hours of manual work. Directors could now use dynamic, up-to-date reports to evaluate and enhance programs, making data-driven decisions with confidence.

Effortless Insights

With Jotform, every time I’m surprised by something new that can make my life a little bit easier, like, for example, this particular Report. Builder. I’ve started using it so people can see all of the information at once, instead of each individual response.
