Detailed Directions for General Assembly Statistical Reporting (If needed):
There is no longer an instruction booklet—all instructions are on the entry screens. Directions for printing a worksheet are on the FAQ page.
The direct link to access the entry system is now on the “Statistical Reporting & FAQ” tab on the Denominational Rolls and Statistics page. If this is your first time:
Username and Password – Use the link above. Be sure to use only yours.
Select the “Church” and “Clerk” tabs, verify and update information.
Produce a worksheet, if needed, by selecting “Church Report” “PDF” on the “Church” tab.
Select “Statistics” tab and begin. English, Espanol & 한국어 are available.
Estimate when you lack reliable data (e.g Sunday School attendance).
Financial Section - Now shorter; may be completed and/or entered by your financial person.
Remember, the closer you get to the deadline the slower the system will be, since it slows down with multiple users and most people wait to the last minute.
Call Lillian if you have questions or difficulties—use the 10 minute rule—if you can’t solve an issue in ten minutes, call! 425.210.8997
DEADLINE FOR ENTRY IS FEBRUARY 2ND.
