Year-End Stats Information
The year-end stats portal for entry of 2024 local church statistics entry opens on Dec. 30, 2024, and closes on Jan. 31, 2025.

Again this year we'll be using GCFA's (General Council on Finance and Administration) [link removed] AC Stats portal (This link will not work until December 30). Since this portal is still new to us, we’ve created a video training available on our [link removed] Absorb learning platform. This short training will orient you to the layout of the new statistics entry portal and its capabilities. You can access this training and additional related resources [link removed] at this link.

2024 Apportionment Deadline
The conference apportionment deadline is Tuesday, January 7, 2025.
Apportionments must be received by January 7 (before 4PM).
If you are sending apportionments after the New Year, utilize a guaranteed method of deliver. Guaranteed methods would include UPS, FedEX, maybe the USPS Priority, but whatever method, you need to let Lindsay know it’s coming ( mailto:[email protected] [email protected]) AND provide a tracking number. Hand Delivery is also a good option if you are down to the wire.
