Congregational Reporting in 2019
Each year, we strive to streamline the online reporting process. For this coming year, we have split the reporting process into three shorter reports: Financial and Statistical Report (due January 31)Congregational Contacts Report (due April 1); Salary Report (due April 1). This separation allows individuals responsible for a particular area of information to complete their respective report in one sitting. Early January, be on the lookout for an email inviting your congregation to complete these reports.
