The mission center officers have prepared a preliminary proposal for the 2025 mission center operating budget. The full packet is available below. A cover letter from Dan Nowiski shares an announcement that he will not be continuing in the mission center president role for another year.
The budget outlines an increase from 2.5 to 3.0 full-time positions to potentially allow for a new full-time president and retain the full-time financial officer and invitation support minister roles. To cover the additional costs associated with 3.0 full-time positions it is requested that congregations increase commitments for 2025 by 10% or more and it is asked that gifts totaling $1 million dollars are received from congregations and individuals by the end of 2025 to increase the operating investment fund to generate more annual earnings from investment.
An information session to review the preliminary budget proposal and answer questions will be held on Thursday, August 8 at 6:30pm via Zoom. Register online here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZAkf-yopjIuE9IXEfbeKtpF8EGdRyRwU70R. A recording should be available online with a few days after the session.
2025 financial commitments are requested from congregations by September 15, 2024. Congregation financial officers should complete the response form on the last page of the packet and submit it to Jessica Montague as soon as possible after the congregation meets to determine financial commitments for next year.
