UPDATE ON OUR CHURCH FINANCES
The first half of 2008 has already past and I would like to inform
you of our current financial situation.
Our church requires approximately R55 000.00 per month to settle
the bills. This amount excludes any costs involved in the maintenance
and renovations of our buildings. Our current expenses exceed
our budget with ± 2.2%. Our income is still below our budget
with ± 9%, which results in a deficit of R75 000. This huge deficit
can be attributed to the fact that we still have our two major fund
raising activities, namely, the September and Advent bazaar ahead
of us. We would thus truly appreciate your help and support!
I am happy to report that 74 out of 240 congregation members responded
to our pledge forms. This helps us tremendously and we
sincerely thank you. We have noted that some of our members have
adjusted their pledges but have not yet returned their forms to us.
Please could you do so either via e-mail, fax or post as this will
greatly assist us in planning our finances during the last half of the
year. Further we request those that have not yet returned their form
to do so as soon as possible.
We have had some successful functions throughout the year such as
the Easter Bazaar, Kindertag, Bunter Abend and Wucherpfenning.
Thank you for your support! Please could all the outstanding
“Wucherpfennige” be returned by the end of the month.
We thank God for all the blessings that He has bestowed on our
congregation. May we continue to enjoy the fellowship in our
church.

Besides worship services, to which all are always cordially
invited, please support the various fund-raising events of
the congregation. They can be filled with fun and joy for
the participants and foster fellowship among people.
