Volume 105 September 2026 Number 29

Greetings Kristy,

The Annual Church Profile (ACP) is a church survey used to track ministry data. As your church completes the survey each year, you have access to data from the prior year submissions at SBC Workspace and ChurchPOP.

• Please complete your ACP as soon as possible, but no later than Wednesday, October 14
• The submitted data for this reporting period is your most recently completed church year (ex: 10/1/2025 – 9/30/2026)
• You can view an instructional video at 2024 ACP Training on Vimeo
• If you have any questions, please call us at 910-754-7979

 We ask that all churches complete the ACP by the

Annual Meeting for the period 10/1/2025 – 9/30/2026.

Please complete the 2026 ACP using the link below:

You Are Invited!



You are invited to our annual Project Leader Workshop this September! Whether you have attended in the past or this will be your first workshop, you will get to see new content and receive a behind-the-scenes look at the ministry of Operation Christmas Child and the resources available to support your churches and groups in packing shoeboxes. This will be a fun and beneficial time of fellowship, new resources, and learning about ways to get your congregation or group members more involved. This workshop will also be a great place for you to meet like-minded individuals in your community and learn more about the impact you are having on children around the world.
