Stewardship 2021:  Funding the Annual Budget

This is the special season when we assess our Fellowship resources for the coming year. Our pledges of membership and financial support create the potential energy that enables our Fellowship to swing into action in the coming year. 

All of us have been affected by the events of 2020.  For some, there have been very significant losses, for others there has been inconvenience and anxiety.  With all of this in mind, our Board, with input from the Minister, and ministry teams, is proposing a budget that shifts spending to increase our ability to connect remotely, but with no increase in the total pledge goal for 2021.  

Pledge packets were sent out on September 10.  There was a great response with over $50,000 pledged in the first forty-eight hours! But we still need to hear from many more of you.  If you did not receive a packet please contact Wendy ([email protected]).

If you would like to talk with someone about pledging, you can contact any of these members: Shannon Sonoras, Fred Thomas, Craig Murchison, Vicki Reidelberger, Sara Clavez, Tom Bailey, Maxine Guettler, Marlene Hickman, Janelle Dombek or Tim Wagner.  

You are probably being bombarded with many requests right now. Don’t let this one get lost in the shuffle! 

Many thanks from your Stewardship Committee: Sara Clavez, Craig Murchison, Chris Nakamura, Vicki Reidelberger, Fred Thomas, Alisha Toyzan.
