Every year, the UCC asks for updated data from all their churches and makes it available in the UCC Yearbook & Directory, Access UCC, and Find A Church on ucc.org. Learn more about the importance of accurate data reporting here.
If you do not have the time or volunteer resources to fill out every part of this report, please make every effort to at least report your membership and attendance numbers! This data is vital for the conference and the national setting.
Online Reporting
Reporting your data is now easier and less time-consuming! The DataHub opens on January 4th at noon, you can enter the information directly into the UCC database (see instructions below). The Data Hub will be open until March 6, 2024. If you need help entering information into the Data Hub, please contact Paul. If you cannot enter the information before March 6, 2024, I will have access for a few weeks after so send that information to me as quickly as you can. - Paul
Paper Forms
This year, we are asking all churches with internet access to enter their reporting via the Data Hub. If you prefer the paper forms, they can be found here:
Local Church Form (word version)
Local Church Form (PDF version)
Church Officers Form
This is a new, and hopefully improved, version of the Local Church Form for this year! Let me know if you have any issues.
Please email them to Paul if at all possible - mail has been sporadic and may not arrive on time! If you are mailing, please send to PO Box 6625, Harrisburg, PA 17112
Data Hub Info
Data Hub Login
Data Hub Resources Page - This website contains a variety of video tutorials and information sheets for using the Data Hub.
Church Yearbook Instructions - Step by step instructions
To log into the UCC Data Hub please go to https://datahub.ucc.org/. Alternately, you will find a link to the Data Hub on the Yearbook webpage.
Your username is your six-digit conference church ID#. PCC's conference ID is 56, which is then followed by your church number. If you have a two or three digit church number, using leading zeros between 56 and your church number to make a 6 digit number. (Example, church number 15 would be 560015.) Your conference or association can provide your correct login (Church ID#).
Your default password is yearbook. If you are trying to log in for the first time after January 4, 2024 use this password. Please let me know if you have any trouble accessing and I will reset the password - Paul
Supplemental Survey
Because of its continued success and tremendous value, we will once again include supplemental research questions (using this SurveyMonkey link) to accompany the Yearbook data collection process. Please note that we will again be asking about online worship attendance in the supplemental survey since the Data Hub’s design doesn’t currently accommodate in-person and online worship data. (Hopefully this will be added to the Data Hub for 2025!)
Church Incentives
To express our gratitude for everyone contributing to the major efforts required for the Yearbook process, we’ll offer church-level incentives again this year. Churches that complete both their annual report and supplemental survey will be included in the drawing for one of 40 gifts!
Please reach out to C. Paul Keller if you have questions or need assistance.
Thank you for all your hard work in collecting and reporting data to the Data Hub!
