Thanks to your generosity, we have been able to grow our ministries, welcome new staff and clergy and care for one another, even in a time of rising costs.
Over the past two years, Grace has made significant strides toward financial stability. In 2024 we expected a $89,000 deficit but ended the year with a much smaller loss of $19,000. Careful expense monitoring and, for the first time in memory, almost every pledge being fulfilled made that possible. By adding staff mid-year, the deficit for 2025 will be approximately $30,000.
We will cover the deficit with operating reserves.
The Vestry projects a $800,000 budget to fully fund our ministries, clergy, staff, and building and grounds expenses for 2026.
The Campaign goal is to raise $750,000. The remaining $50,000 will be secured by plate, rental income, and operating reserves.
