Sts. Clare & Francis

Pledge Drive Update
 
Dear Members of Sts. Clare & Francis -

 

In an prior e-mail, we asked community members to complete a pledge form and return it to the Finance Committee by mid-April. We have received 35 pledges so far. We thank those members for their response and commitment.

 

The Finance Committee will be asked to make follow-up phone calls to contact members who have not pledged. To keep those phone calls to a minimum, we are asking those who have not yet completed a pledge form to fill it out and send it now. If, for any reason, you are unable to make a pledge at this time, please check that option before you send the form, and we will know not to call you. (Of course, you can continue to make contributions whether you make a pledge at this time or not.)

 

As a reminder, in order to meet this year's budget, we need to increase our revenue by $1,000 each month. If, as a community, we increase our collections by 15%, we would expect to balance the budget this year. 

 

Please prayerfully consider how much you are able to give. Then click the following link: Pledge Form, and download the form. Fill in the pledge form, save it, and  e-mail it to Kevin Born at kpborn@gmail.com by May 26.  [In testing to ensure these links worked, some computers were unable to successfully download the form. If that is the case for you, there will be paper forms at church to complete and return in the collection basket.]

 

Gratefully,

Steve Signature

Giving Stats

 

At our last Family Meeting, there was a request for some general information about our giving in the past year. In 2011, we had 75 recorded "giving units." (An example of a giving unit would be a couple/family that gives together rather than separately.) Anonymous givers of cash donations are not included here.
 
The breakout of the number of giving units for each giving level for the 2011 calendar year was:
 
Over $10,000                    1
$5,000 - $9,999                2
$2,500 - $4,999                7
$1,000 - $2,499              11
$500 - $999                      11
$100 - $499                      24
$5 - $99                             19
