The 2025 realignment

Three districts, one ledger.

In 2025 the conference consolidated seven districts into three — Central, North, and South. Here is how the active churches in each compare on size and, most tellingly, on what they were apportioned versus what they paid. Apportionment figures are each church’s most recently reported year.
