Special Announcement

[Resurrection UMC Office]

A Word From the Finance Committee

As we live into our new circumstances after the sale of our Old Chapel Hill Road property, there are some things you need to be aware of.  The proceeds from the sale of the property are not to be used for general budgeting purposes.  We are in the process of making investment decisions for the funds.  The income they then generate will be available for us to spend as needed.   In the interim, as we have begun to share equally in Calvary's operational expenses, we are falling several thousand dollars short of the funds needed for month-to-month expenses.  Our weekly offerings are averaging about $1,500.  They need to be more in the $2,000-2,500 range.  How is it with your giving?!  Can you help bridge the gap?

We apologize that we have not yet been able to print out individual records of giving this year--in the midst of the move, we have temporarily lost access to the contributions module of our computer programs.  As soon as we can resolve that, we will print and distribute your personal record.  That will give you an opportunity to evaluate prayerfully what you are giving to the life and ministry of the church.  We would really love to be able to become more faithful in our missional giving as we move forward.  But doing that will require additional giving.  

One thing to note:  If you make a cash donation, you still need to put it in one of the offering envelopes and mark it for Resurrection UMC.  That is the only way it can be identified as going to RUMC's operating budget.

Thank you for your prayerful consideration of your giving to Christ's Church!
