Our final Endowment Sunday for 2017 will be All Saints Sunday November 5th.
Thank you to everyone that donated on our first two Endowment Sundays of 2017, on Mother’s Day and Father’s Day.
We started the year with $19,554 in Endowment Fund earnings available for ministry opportunities in 2017. Council has since voted to commit to the following ministries with some of those funds:
· $3,813 – (This is an approximate amount) to boost our commitment to the Synod by 1% enabling our Synod commitment to go from 10% to 11%.
· $3,000 – Heart for Africa
· $4,000 – Youth Scholarships for Synod events
So, there is a balance of approximately $8,700 from Endowment funds available in 2017 for additional ministry opportunities.
Always keep in mind that the Endowment Fund only grows with contributions from members and friends of Zion. Those who share the vision of not only a living memorial for loved ones, but also recognize that upon maturity, the Fund will provide significant monetary grants for many new mission oriented programs, forever.
Envelopes marked “Endowment Fund” are always in the back of the church on Sundays for anyone wishing to contribute.
Please contact any member of the Endowment Committee (Geof Close, Ted Jermansen and Rick Schroeder) if you have any questions.
