Matching Challenge Update

Matching Challenge Update: The full challenge amount, $50,000, has been earned by the generosity of the congregation!  We now have $120,000 pledged for 2013 from 108 members in 67 pledges.  Specific gifts for certain projects, and the general increase in giving exceed $50,000.  Pam and Kevern deposited funds into the Church’s account back in October to cover the $50,000, their pledge for 2013 and a little extra.  We still need more of our members committed and pledging to reach our budgeted contributions for 2013, $185,000.  We are confident we can do the follow ups needed to get that done.  We have still to hear from over half of our membership. We will use that little extra given to cover any additional gifts or increases until it is all committed. This is the perfect thing to have completed successfully before we call our new settled pastor.  We will get to work on some of the projects soon. Thank you all for giving generously, to make this happen!  The Stewardship Committee
