An update on the Budget for 2008

Thanks to the generous response of Northaven members and friends, the Leadership Council was able to adopt a balanced budget for 2008 at its meeting on February 26. The 2008 budget is set at $786,600 in income and $785,835 in expenses.

In recent weeks, the church received additional gifts and pledges totaling $45,566. These, together with the Black Tie grant of $46,694 awarded in 2007 for 2008, and coupled with savings and reductions in several areas, have enabled us to adopt a budget that provides for our necessities while continuing to grow vital programs. Black Tie funds, in particular, will enable Northaven to be a significant presence at the General Conference in April and to develop the study guide to accompany the film “For the Bible Tells Me So.”

These developments call attention to the importance of thoughtful stewardship of our resources throughout the year, and also to the importance of special funding events that support Northaven. If you are interested in serving on the Stewardship commission, please contact the Chair, Bob Dawson. If special events is your special talent, please contact me – we need your skills!
