Last week we had our annual church budget meeting. This is where the directors of the charitable company called The Beacon Church get together for a long night (7.30pm-12 midnight) to rehearse the church budget 2011\2012. This coming year is unusual as we are subsidising the church w\e away - Beacon at the Beach plus we have the significant challenge of the new Beacon Centre and meeting loan repayments on top of regular financial commitments. There are 100s of thousands of ponds and millions of pounds in total to be considered, worked through and prayed about.
Part of this is also the forthcoming Gift Day on Sunday 3rd April - this is our opportunity together to put another big dent in the total amount outstanding on the new building - £425,000.
So let's be diligent and prayerful about our own finances and budgets and be prayerful about our regular giving and the Gift Day in 3 weeks time. Let's have a financial adventure of faith. Oh, and dont forget your mum!
