Thank you - 2017 Apportionment Giving

Posted: January 24 2018 at 11:42 AM

2017 Apportionments are now closed, and we have a lot of 100% churches!

“It is because of our wonderful churches continuing their support for The United Methodist Church, that the Northern Illinois Conference was able to pay 90% of our apportionments to support the General Church apportioned funds. We value and treasure, not only our 100% churches but all of our churches who work year-round to raise funds to support the mission. We thank you, and we look forward to a blessed 2018,” said Lonnie Chafin, NIC Treasurer.
