Finance Committee report to January 21st Church Council meeting.
We ended 2012 with General Fund giving at $358.2k vs. $364.8k in 2011. Expenses were $357.9k vs. $368.6k last year. There is a $10.2k balance in the General Fund going into 2013, preserving the practice of starting the new year with a $10k.
Our giving model forecast giving at $360k, within about 1% of what actually was given.
Capital Fund giving was $41k in 2012 vs. $33.4k in 2011
$42.6k (75%) was paid to Apportionments.
We are starting 2013 with a changed Stewardship process, where we do not have a record of pledged giving. We will carefully monitor giving over the first few months and make changes to planned spending should giving dictate the need to do so.
Chris Hipp – Chair Finance Committee
