Assimilation Design
From decades of helping churches create meaningful connections, we’ve learned that a well-designed church visitor experience is the key to long-term engagement. We help churches craft seamless pathways that move people from first-time visitors to fully engaged disciples—ensuring every step of their journey is clear, intentional, and inviting.
Where Many Churches Get Stuck
Many churches struggle to bridge the gap between visitors walking in the door and fully engaging in the life of the church. Without a clearly defined pathway, people are left unsure of their next steps—leading to low visitor retention, weak assimilation, and disengagement. Even when onboarding classes exist, they often feel disconnected from the larger experience, making it difficult for people to move from attendance to activation. Is your church offering a clear, compelling journey that makes it easy for people to connect, grow, and get involved? If not, it’s time to create a streamlined process that welcomes, equips, and integrates people into the heart of your church.
There is no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to developing a discipleship pathway. Our process aims to understand who you are in order to uniquely optimize your onboarding, assimilation, and activation processes for who you're called to reach.
