This is a Reminder from Your Stewardship and Finance Committee:
Shady Grove United Methodist Church Families,
Friends, we wanted to give you a quick update about our 2010 Giving Card totals.
 
If you are one of the families that have already turned in your card, thank you!! Your financial support will be used prudently to continue the important work of His church.
 
We are beginning to review our 2010 operational budget and need to have a firm understanding of what our giving totals will be. Please turn in your estimate of giving card to aid us in this planning process. 
 
As of November 15, our expected giving totals for next year include:
 
General Fund:                $538,920 (176 pledge cards)
Mortgage Fund:             $146,234 (106 pledge cards)
 
 
As you know, we have focused on sharing more information and helping more church members understand the finances of our church. We will continue to do so throughout this year. It is with that spirit that we acknowledge that we don’t yet know what the results of our stewardship campaign will be in the coming days. We hope you will prayerfully consider your pledge, and again want to stress that your commitment is between you and God.
 
It’s hard to believe that in just five weeks we will all be celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ. We look forward to seeing you at church at such an exciting time of year!! He is alive.
 
God bless.
