It’s that time of year for churches to report their 2025 attendance, ministries, and financial records to the conference office.

Also, the deadline for submitting check payments for remaining 2025 apportionments and second-mile giving is Jan. 9.

The statistics demonstrate a bit about your church's health, trends, updates, and more and are used to calculate your church's apportionments. It’s very important that we have accurate, up-to-date data. The denomination's General Council on Finance and Administration also tracks this information for denominational records.

Get started—and find information and resources—here. You will enter your church's 2025 statistics on the GCFA website.  The deadline for reporting is Jan. 31.

Check payments

The final day to make check payments for 2025 apportionments and second-mile giving is Jan. 9. All checks must be postmarked by this date. Any check not received in the conference office by Jan. 16 will be applied to 2026. The 2025 books will be closed and changes cannot be made after that date.  

You may mail checks to Northern Illinois Conference, P.O. Box 5646, Carol Stream, IL 60197-5646. 

Contact David W. Quinn if you have questions.
