WESTMINSTER ST. PAUL’S PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
TREASURER’S REPORT
ans DECEMBER 31, 1988
(3)
4. Proposed Budget - 1989
The basis for budgeting each item has been indicated on the pro-
Posed budget schedules,
Accounting fees have been added to the budget for 1989, as these
services can no longer be donated to the Church along with other
services being donated by the Treasurer. It should be pointed out,
that if the Church had to go to outside services for the amount of
time being spent on the finances of the Church it would cost much
more than the $3,600 budgeted for 1989,
As mentioned above, the Board of Managers has established a Prop-
erty improvement fund for the Church with the surplus funds from
1988. The budget includes $4,300 for the improvement fund and
the congregation will be asked to identify offerings under "other"
on their envelopes.
The capital expenses for the Church for 1989 include repairing the
outside wall and widening the north side driveway into a proper
Parking lot.
Capital expenses for the Manse include replacing corroded taps
and installing aluminum storm windows.
Treasurer’s Message.
For the first time since I became a member of Westminster St.
Paul’s, we had a substantial surplus for 1988. I hope that this is
a sign of a bright financial future for our Church.
I feel that we have to take a longer range approach to our finan-
cial requirements, hence the establishment of the Property improve-
ment fund to accumulate funds towards such things as Paving the
Parking lot. :
We all have an obligation to provide the facilities to promote the
spreading of God’s word. Let us not forget however which comes
first.
OUR LORD, JESUS CHRIST
Your Treasurer.
Ray Luxon.
