The National Church Life Survey (NCLS) is run every 5 years. Out of the 2011 survey, Christian Venues Association (CVA) commissioned a report called “Social Shifts, Spiritual Trends, 4 Decades of Change” based upon ABS Census data, other ABS data sets, McCrindle Research figures and special NCLS questions commissioned by CVA. This report (available upon request) showed the significance that church camps & retreats had in people making a faith decision.

Our world has changed again in the last five years and so CVA placed strategic questions in the 2016 NCLS and commissioned a report to validate the original findings.

That report supported the original findings and is now available along with its summarising A5 infographic card. We invite you to read the report and to distribute both the report and infographic as widely as possible.

Hard copies of both the Report & Infographic are available for order below and are free for CVA members.
