As the database of congregational information and Yearbook history, ALEX can paint a data-driven picture of your congregation by reporting statistics, history, and trends in participation, stewardship, and Disciples-related outreach. Using the historical data stored in ALEX, ALEX staff can generate an 11-year review of your congregation’s membership and financial trends.
ALEX staff can also generate custom reports and data files for your church containing information reported in ALEX.
Encouraging your congregation to report Yearbook on the ALEX website during the annual reporting period not only creates a clearer picture of your congregation, but it also informs your region and general ministries as they work to support you. The annual reporting period is typically January through March each year.
Data in ALEX provides information to the Find a Congregation page on the site.
The ALEX team in the Office of General Minister and President can answer your data related questions.
