ABOUT THIS REPORT: Looking Deeper

About this Edition of the ASR. This is the 155th annual report ofSeventh-day Adventist statistics. It reports institutional, financial, andpersonnel statistics as of December 31, 2017. The report includes colorcharts illustrating key statistics and statistical trends (p. 10), as well asthe color map of the 10/40 Window (p. 72), which continues to be a keypriority for the Adventist Church.

Publication arrangements for the ASR are changing in response torequests from users around the world to have statistics for just onecalendar year in each edition of the ASR. The edition you are readingnow provides institutional, employee, departmental, and world missionstatistics for 2017. End-of-2018 membership and congregationalstatistics have already been published in electronic form, in an AdvanceRelease that was made available earlier this year as a PDF (available todownload at www.adventiststatistics.org).

The end of 2019 will see the beginning of a new seriesinaugurated by a volume of the ASR containing all statistics for thecalendar year 2018; it will include the statistics released in digital form inthe Advance Release, which will thus be repeated but now alongside allother 2018 statistics for completeness, while they will also thus beavailable in printed form as well as PDF. In 2020 membership andcongregational statistics for 2019 will again be released as soon as theyare available, published as an electronic-only “advance release.” Theentirety of the 2019 statistics will then be published in a single hardcopyedition by the end of 2020.

This year will thus see the publication of two ASRs in order tofacilitate the transition to the new one volume per calendar yearapproach. In a sense this is a return to the older pre-2013 mode ofpublication, but with the new approach (including advance release indigital form of statistics on membership and congregations as soon asthey are available) it means that each year’s statistics will be availablemuch sooner than was the case before 2013. We appreciate thefeedback of those who use the Annual Statistical Report around theworld in helping us improve our service.

Adventist Mortality. It has been frequently mentioned in the ASRprefaces how mortality rates—the number of deaths per thousandpeople in a population—are a useful indicator of the accuracy ofmembership reports, but that is not all they communicate. Charts 1 and2 show the 20 countries with the lowest and highest reported Adventistmortality rates, respectively. The countries and divisions with the lowestreported death rates exemplify the need for frequent and rigorousauditing, as unreported membership deaths, the only possibleconclusion when no deaths are reported among a general populationdeath rate of 3-11 per thousand, quickly build into substantialinaccuracies in membership figures.

The highest reported death rates, on the other hand, are hardlylikely to be underreported, and there is no conceivable incentive tooverreport. If taken, then, as an accurate portrayal of membership inthose countries and divisions, the highest death rates could leave onescrambling for a dramatic explanation for the dramatic figures such aswar, famine, or disease. The reality is simpler: the membership in thesecountries is old. And as they die they are not being replaced by ayounger membership at a sufficient rate to sustain the church in theseareas, much less grow it. Mortality rates thus offer insights not only intothe inaccuracy of many areas’ membership statistics but also into thedemographics of the church in certain regions.

Languages. One of the oldest tables in the ASR is Table 32,Languages and Dialects in Which SDA Publications are Now in Print.When changes to its formatting were being considered recently, it wasrealized that a number of countries where the Adventist Church is activehad no data in this table and that some data seemed doubtful. Toimprove the accuracy and completeness of these data, a new reportingsystem was initiated which listed all languages with more than 200,000speakers in each division’s territory. For each language, respondentswere to indicate whether it was used in print, used orally, and/or heard inbroadcasts reaching their territory. Results thus far have been mixed;there are now even more countries with no report, but the data whichhas come in is far more thorough. As part of the new format, the count oflanguages used orally is now separated from the count of languages inprint, making it appear lower than previous years until the separation ofcomponents is noticed. It is hoped that within the next year the missingcountries will have reported in so that this can be a truly accurate anduseful table.

Healthcare Report. Regretfully, no healthcare report for 2017 canbe included in this edition of the ASR. No report was received by thedeadline, nor indeed during the 10 months of grace extended after thatdeadline. A listing and count of hospitals and sanitariums reported in2016 has been repeated in its place. We hope that at some point in thenear future health statistics will be collected and transmitted to the worldheadquarters; if and when that happens, a full report will be included inthe ASR.

GENERAL STATISTICS FOR 201766

GLOBAL MISSIONThe Church’s Presence, Outreach, and Mission

Challenge of Global Mission.—The Global Mission document voted at the1989 Annual Council and endorsed at the 1990 General Conference Session seeksto create an awareness, in concrete measurable terms, of what the gospelcommission means to the church today.

Monitoring Global Advance.—Table 1 below lists major unentered regions ofthe world according to conferences or missions rather than by countries. It is basedon a challenge of Global Mission: to place a church among each one million of earth'spopulation. To locate regions where the ratio of churches to population is less than1:1,000,000, we have used the 2018 Seventh-day Adventist Yearbook to find thoseconferences or missions with low church-to-population ratios. For example, in theNorthern India Union Section of the Southern Asia Division the Chhattisgarh Regionhas a population of 28.5 million and ten churches. Therefore, on average, eachchurch serves a population of 2.9 million people. Progress is indicated in the fact thatin 2001, when this field was organized, each church served an average of 6.9 millionpeople.

This view of the global challenge shows in which conferences or missions thegreat challenges lie in relation to the Adventist "presence." (For a definition of "pres-ence" see "Definitions" in the next column.)

A column is provided to show the "Population Estimate (Millions) Per Church1990 or When Organized" for comparison. The basis for these entries is the 1991Seventh-day Adventist Yearbook or the Yearbook representing the year of the field’sorganization after 1990. In some cases the 2017 ratio is larger than the earlier ratio.This may be due to a population that is growing more rapidly than the church or toofficial revisions in population estimates, rather than to a loss of churches. In somecases the fields that existed in 1990 no longer exist by the same name or territory soa direct comparison is impossible. In other cases growth of churches has loweredthe ratio below 1.0. These are being eliminated year by year as church growthoccurs. This occurred this year when the Greek Mission of the Trans-European Divi-sion established its 11th church in a country with a population of 10.7 million people.

The number of churches is taken from the 2018 edition of the Annual StatisticalReport; population statistics are for mid-2017 and estimates are provided by thePopulation Reference Bureau of Washington, DC.*

Some countries with a population of one million or more yet with little or noSeventh-day Adventist organizational structure are shown in parentheses.

Table 2 lists all countries and some areas of the world and shows church-plant-ing activity and general growth, including the number of ordained ministers,churches, companies, and members, for each country.

Although isolated Sabbath keepers or Seventh-day Adventists from othercountries are known to reside in some countries where there is no organized church,the data here corresponds to official reports from the divisions.

The "Ordained Ministers" column excludes those who serve in administrativepositions at the union and division levels.

Definitions.—Officially, what is a "country or area of the world?" For the pur-poses of this report, it is a separate political or geographical entity. Because the Sev-enth-day Adventist Church does not involve itself in political affairs, the reader shouldattach no special significance to the presence of certain names in the list or theabsence of others. The countries and areas shown in the accompanying Global Mis-sion tables are taken from the United Nations Statistics Division, Standard Countryand Area Codes Classifications (M49) list, excluding areas without political autonomyor permanent populations.

"Presence" means the existence within the territory of an organized church.

"Established work" exists in a country or area of the world when one or more ofthe following criteria have been met: (1) when an organized church meets regularly;(2) when a mission station, healthcare facility, or school is functioning regularly; or (3)when a regular full-time denominational employee is based in the country or area car-rying on outreach or soul-winning activities through such units as a Sabbath school,an organized company, or a language school. Seventh-day Adventist work is notconsidered to be established in a country or area when it is limited to a series ofevangelistic meetings, literature-evangelist work not based there, scattered Sabbathkeepers, employees traveling through, or temporary service by regular employees,student missionaries, or other volunteer employees. Countries or areas where thechurch does not have established work are listed in a half-page table on page 67.

The "number of countries and areas of the world" is derived from the UnitedNations M49 list downloaded September 28, 2017, less the areas excluded for thereasons mentioned above. This makes our count 235.

STATISTICAL REPORT FOR 2017 71

GLOBAL MISSION

(GM) Table 310/40 Window

Matthew 24:14: “And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” NIV The 10/40 Window describes a rectangular-shaped region of the world map in the eastern hemisphere between the 10 and 40 northern lines of latitude, which includes North Africa, the Middle East, and Asia, where more than 60% of the world’s population live. This region is home to some of the largest people groups who do not have access to the Gospel message. The majority of the world’s least evangelized countries and a great number of the poor are within the 10/40 Window. It contains three of the world’s dominant religions: Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism, plus the non-religious. Much of this region also has Biblical and historical significance.
