Some important things to note about the 2023 Statistical Report:
We are now entering our stats through the General Council on Finance and Administration (GCFA)
- To log-in, you must enter your six-digit GCFA Number as the "e-mail" address, and then enter the password as: ACStats23!
- The first question you come to will tell you that you are not listed, and the system will have you register with the Local Church.
- Once you do this, you will be required to register as a user using your e-mail address and picking a password. More than one person per church can register following the same instructions above.
- After you registered, you can click Annual Report, and it will take you to your statistical report entry page.
- It is at this step that you may start entering your stats. We recommend sliding the "Display Question Help" to the on position as it will provide you more details and assistance when answering questions. Clicking on the Question # will also display a helpful pop-up detailing more information relating to that question.
We will have a tutorial sent out soon helping you navigate the Statistical Report.
This site does allow you to save and return as many times as you need.
