District assemblies continue on the USA/Canada Region in 2011 and reports arriving at the Church of the Nazarene's Global Ministry Center show more sacrificial generosity among Nazarenes. 

The Board of General Superintendents reports goals are being reached in giving to the World Evangelism Fund (WEF), with several districts topping the 100-percent giving mark. Recent 100-Percent Districts include:
 

  • Georgia, 102 percent (Roy E. Rogers, district superintendent)
  • Mid-Atlantic, 100+ percent (Kenneth L. Mills, district superintendent)
  • North Florida, 100+ percent (Orville Jenkins Jr., district superintendent)
  • Northern Michigan, 106 percent (Wayne H. Brown, district superintendent)
  • Northwest, 100+ percent (Randall J. Craker, district superintendent)
  • Northwestern Illinois, 114.7 percent* (Crawford Howe, district superintendent)
  • Sacramento, 100+ percent (Steve Scott, district superintendent)
  • Southern California, 100+ percent (John Denney, district superintendent)
  • West Texas, 108 percent (Charles E. Jones, district superintendent)

General Superintendent J. K. Warrick reports Southern California's Nazarene Missions International rallied to overpay their WEF, raising $9,000 to do so.

"The assembly then rallied to pay Point Loma Nazarene University in full as well," Warrick said. With these and additional offerings, the delegates and churches gave nearly $40,000 for the mission.

Districts who previously reported 100 percent giving or more to the World Evangelism Fund in 2011 include:
 

  • Alabama South, 105.6 percent (Mark D. Berry, district superintendent)
  • Central Florida, 101 percent (Larry Dennis, district superintendent)
  • Eastern Michigan, 100 percent (Stephen T. Anthony, district superintendent)
  • Hawaii Pacific, 108 percent (Robert C. Killen, district superintendent)
  • Intermountain, 103.5 percent (Stephen Borger, district superintendent)
  • Louisiana, 100 percent (Greg Mason, district superintendent)
  • Oklahoma, 102 percent (Terry Rowland, district superintendent)
  • Philadelphia, 101 percent (Newell Smith, district superintendent)
  • South Texas, 100+ percent (Duane Srader, district superintendent)
