Re: Annual Statistical Reports


Advent blessings to each of you! It’s time once again to complete your church’s Annual Statistical Report. The stat portal from the Office of General Assembly is now active for you to submit your church’s information for the 2021 reporting year. You can access the information by clicking this link: OGA Statistical Reporting & FAQs.


Everything should look the same as last year. (If you are new to statistical reporting, the program includes helpful tools, a workbook and definitions to assist in the completion of this report.) Also, there are no supplemental questions again this year to complete.


Worship numbers may still look very different from past years’ reporting. We are all aware of the new and creative ways our churches are worshiping. There is no standard metric to count how many people are attending worship. Each church should account for attendance in a way that feels comfortable to them, and report it accordingly in the appropriate section on the report.


Your User Name and Password have not changed. If you have misplaced your login information, call (828/438-4217) or email me (twilliams@presbyterywnc.org) and I can look it up for you. *If you are having trouble logging in, the most common mistake in entering your login information is omitting the exclamation mark (!) at the end of your password.*


The report does not have to be completed all in one sitting. As long as you hit the "accept" button at the bottom of each page, your data will be saved and you can come and go as often as you like until the deadline (February 11, 2022). Also, remember this is the perfect time of the year to evaluate your membership rolls. This benefits not only your church, but the Presbytery as well. Help us be good stewards and purge those records!


The 2022 Church Data Form is linked here. It will also be posted on Presbytery’s website (www.presbyterywnc.org) under “Useful Forms” by mid-month. If you have your session or deacon membership available in a different format, feel free to print that version and attach it to the Church Data Form as opposed to retyping the information.


All reports are due by Friday, February 11, 2022. Failure to comply is a violation of the Book of Order. I know this is a busy time for everyone! Avoid the stress and complete what you can before year-end! 


As always, please let me know if I can be of help. I appreciate each of you and your diligence in submitting your church’s information annually. Wishing you all the best this holy season!
