What is a Gold Star Congregation?

Gold Star congregations are those that grew in numbers every year for the last three years and had either the highest percentage growth of District congregations or the highest absolute number of new members over three years.

• At the Annual Conference, look for the large gold stars attached to their banners on display.
• Members of these congregations will have gold stars on their name badges at the Annual Conference — ask them to share with you what their congregation did to encourage growth.
