The range across conferences
Apportionment collection
How much of what is asked actually gets paid — and how is the ask set?
Apportionments are the dues each church pays to the conference. The share paid varies enormously, and conferences don't even compute the ask the same way — some tithe on income, some use a two-factor formula, some a fair-share of spending.

% of apportionment budget paid
Two-factor formula (membership + financial, 2-yr average). Among the highest-paying conferences in the denomination.

apportionment model + ask (~$10.25M for 2026, down 1.5%); realized collection rate not in the journal
Apportionments are calculated from local-church expenditures, with a notable restraint (¶301.20): the conference budget's 3-year average growth may not exceed the 3-year average growth in local-church expenditures — a built-in brake on 'apportionments always rising.' 2026 ask $10.25M, down 1.5% from $10.42M.
⚠ Model and ask confirmed; the realized collection percentage is not reported in the journal (no audit included).
