Vestry Meeting January 26, 2010

Mr. Dale Varga presented the 2010 budget reporting that it reflects a strong financial situation. Cash balances are improved over 2009 and there is an increased commitment to missions. The final budget is based upon actual pledges received. This is slightly smaller than the original working 2010 budget. Consequently, reductions in building maintenance, missions, TAM repayment and ACM administrative have been made. The first three line items will be reinstated if income surpassed the pledged amount.

Rev. Paul Walker reported the Memorial Garden has been reviewed by an architect with a desire to improve the space. It is hoped that this garden can be a respite from the city as well as be a place for family members of the deceased.

Miscellaneous building improvements are underway. Estimates for other needed repairs are presently being sought.

The Word

For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).

The Prayer

Almighty God, who through your only-begotten Son Jesus Christ overcame death and opened to us the gate of everlasting life: Grant that we, who celebrate with joy the day of the Lord's resurrection, may be raised from the death of sin by your life-giving Spirit; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen. (Book of Common Prayer, p. 222)
