Church Research Council

The Church Research Council (CRC)  builds on the work done in Where the Saints Meet and Churches of Christ in the United States to develop and maintain an accurate directory of Churches of Christ. In addition to keeping the list of congregations and updating the directory, the CRC has set out to collect the most accurate congregational information for Churches of Christ since the 1980s. Data collected helps us know what divides us and brings us together. The data collected by the CRC is instrumental in identifying small-town and rural churches and understanding how they differ from their suburban and urban counterparts.
