ASR

Annual Statistical Report Reporting on 2023 Data

The Annual Statistical Report (ASR) represents work done by IMB personnel and their missions partners in 2023, for use from May 2024 to April 2025.

The ASR contains data from all IMB affinities and reports on the components of the missionary task: entry, evangelism, discipleship, healthy church formation, leadership development and exit to partnership. Our global research team has taken care to provide accurate numbers that represent IMB’s commitment, as the Apostle Paul advised, to not report upon the work done outside of the sphere apportioned to us by the Lord (2 Cor 10:12-18).
