Abstract

This project examines the relationship of pastoral succession to church growth in United Methodist congregations of the North Arkansas Conference. Data gathered by survey were processed with analysis of variance and a regression equation. The independent variable was the pastoral succession rate and the dependent variables for church growth were average Sunday school attendance, average worship attendance, average professions of faith, and average annual payout of apportionments. No significant relationship existed between the independent variable of pastoral succession and the dependent variables of worship attendance, Sunday school attendance, professions of faith, and the amount of apportionments paid.
