Annual Church Profile
Your Church’s Story Matters – Help Accelerate Gospel Movement
Every church has a unique story—a testimony of God’s faithfulness, lives changed, and communities impacted. By completing the Annual Church Profile (ACP), your church helps strengthen our shared mission of making disciples and spreading the gospel.
The ACP is a quick and easy way for churches across the Southern Baptist Convention to provide vital ministry data—membership, baptisms, attendance, and more. But it’s more than just numbers. It’s a tool that helps churches, associations, and the Baptist State Convention of Michigan (BSCM) develop strategic resources, plan for the future, and meet your precise ministry needs.
A Clear Vision for the Road Ahead
Just as a driver needs a clear view of the road ahead, churches need a clear understanding of their ministry impact. The ACP provides key insights into the spiritual condition of your mission field, equipping your church, association, and the BSCM with the information needed to accelerate gospel movement in Michigan.
Informational Stewardship: A Kingdom Responsibility
Completing the ACP is an act of stewardship—just like tithing, giving to missions, and supporting the Cooperative Program. It ensures that together, we can strengthen churches, plant new ones, and make disciples of all nations.
Your church’s story matters. Help us serve you better and advance the gospel—complete your ACP today!
Why the ACP Matters for Your Church
Plan for the Future
Reviewing past data helps your church set goals, track trends, and develop effective ministry strategies.
Protect Your Records
Your church’s data is securely stored, ensuring you have a backup in case of disasters like floods or fires.
Increase Your Church’s Voice
The number of messengers your church sends to the BSCM Annual Meeting is determined by the data you provide.
Support Pastoral Transitions
When churches search for new pastors, ACP data provides an accurate picture of their ministry, assisting both churches and candidates.
Strengthen Financial Accountability
Combined with other records, ACP data helps validate faithful financial stewardship in ministry.
