Hello,

I've posted the 2016 yearbook service report in excel format for public download. Here's the link: http://www.filedropper.com/2016yearbookofjwinexcelformat

I've also edited the yearbook service report for analysis below. I've eliminated all columns except 2 columns - the 2015 and 2014 Average publishers. I've sorted from largest to smallest based on the column "A subtract B".

Could you be talked into converting: 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012 and 2011 into excel?

DO you have the memorial parakers number vs last year??

konceptual99

Thanks very much westenddave. Does anyone have data for other years?

jookbeard

Wow, the chariot seems to be slowing down, loving the red column, alarming for Japan and Poland and most of Europe

I'd really like to see that table with 2014 baptisms compared with 2015. It would probably show downturn in most places.

As someone mentioned on another post, Ukraine's negative is nearly offset by Russia's positive. I wasn't aware of it, but there has been some restructuring of boundaries apparently.

Also, I am a little surprised to see large decreases in some of the poorest African nations like Malawi, Congo, and Congo DR, while most of the other African nations have relatively large increases.

Overall the report shows stagnation. There are still plenty of people enthusiastically making the WT their life's work that it will be around for a long while yet, but many are just finding it boring. When a country gets to the point where there are nearly as many ex-witnesses as current witnesses, the growth stops. That would be an interesting figure to have, it if were possible to get.
