Personnel Information Related To Budget …

At the annual meeting in March, the Leadership Team will update you on the budget for this year.  Due to the significant giving in December, the Team is pleased to announce that one change in the budget was to move the Part Time Assistant position filled by Patrice Pugh to a full time allocation. 

This assistant’s position was formerly full time, but in an effort to be good stewards of our finances, toward the end of ‘08 and through all of ‘09, the allocation was only part time.  It had been our hope at some point to restore it to full time status; and thus recently, Patrice began employment on a full time basis.  We appreciate Patrice’s expertise  in graphic design and website content, in addition to the general responsibilities of an assistant and we are pleased she can serve in this capacity.

We will share more soon …

Special Offerings for Haiti and Dominican Republic Mission

We are watching the continuing relief work in Haiti and aware of the long term nature of their needs.  We have directed you through the IMB to one method of giving, but we also want to have a special offering that will allow church members to assist the efforts.  On February 21st, we’ll take a special offering for Haiti relief.  There will be information in the bulletin this week to prepare us for that effort.

In addition, we’ve schedule two upcoming events called Calvary Live (more on that later) the first which will be on February 28 at 7:00 pm, and the second on March 28th.  The February 28th date will feature Messenger and Twelve South, both groups that are connected to Calvary.  For the 28th, we take an offering which will be applied toward assisting those going on the Dominican Republic Trip.
