To supplement the Financial Secretary’s report on contributions, the Finance Board provides the graph above that compares the year-to-date figures for the Budget, Incomes, and Expenses, as of the end of May 2024. As shown, the Incomes without the Reserve supplement ($85,229) exceed the Expenses ($64,869) by about $20,360. This is primarily due to not having an interim/term or full-time pastor and reflected in the difference between Budget ($84,200) and Expenses ($64,869). Our goal is to increase our incomes (offerings, facility usage, etc.) such that we are no longer dependent on the Reserve supplement to meet expenses.
“Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” 2 Corinthians 9:7 (ESV)
