The Finance Board provides the graph above that compares the year-to-date figures for the Budget, Incomes (Offerings and Facility Usage Fees), and Expenses, as of the end of March 2025. As shown, for the first three months the Incomes ($45,134) fell short of the Expenses ($45,344) by about $210. This was a slight improvement over the end of February. While the year-to-date Expenses were below the Budget (by approximately $4,700), the Finance Board continues to have concerns regarding the offering receipts being about $5,700 below the budget at this time. As in last month, we continue to watch this occurrence closely for any need to consider additional actions in order to bring our spending in line with our income. Your continued support and commitment through weekly/monthly offerings remain vital as we continue our journey through 2025.
“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)
