As of the print date for the newsletter, I don't have the end-of-month figures for March yet. I do know we are coming into a month with five Sundays including Palm Sunday and Easter. This should bring in enough funds to keep us on budget for the month. We do have a plan now from the finance committee for addressing the larger budget deficit we are carrying this year over last. This plan includes an expanded push on fundraisers as well as an additonal event to raise awareness about our budget and stewardship.
On Sunday May 6th, we will be having a meal after church to discuss church finances and stewardship. We will have speakers on the United Methodist system for setting salaries and budgets, one on stewardship and one discussing our specific budget income and outflow. Please come and let us enjoy a meal together. You will also learn about how our church ministry is funded as well as how we need to bring our gifts together to not just maintain, but grow the ministry of Peoples UMC.
