general fund concern

[Diane]

Good morning,

As we discussed at one of the church council meetings recently, I have switched to paying bills monthly, based on the order at the bottom of this email.

This coming Sunday is payroll.  We need approx $3K to process payroll.

At this point in time there is $9565 in the general fund, of which $7699 is encumbered for capital expenses and designated gifts - leaving only $1866 to process payroll and bills.

We should receive Jumpstart's building use shortly, which will cover payroll but not the remaining bills.

Currently about $2300 bills, plus $7603 due for property insurance at this time, plus mission shares that we haven't paid on ($9458 due this year).

please provide guidance,

thank you, Diane

ORDER FOR PAYING BILLS, typically processed on a monthly basis

1- Pass-through designated gifts (e.g., money given to the Parish Cupboard or other special causes that was collected and then sent on)

2- Payroll and employee reimbursements

3- IRS or government mandated expenses

4- Workman's compensation

5- Small and/or local vendors

6- Larger/corporate vendors (Eversource, Comcast, Home Depot)

7- New England Conference - property / liability insurance

8- New England Conference - Mission Shares
