This week's announcements:
We are quickly nearing the end of our fiscal year. Our budget year ends June 30th, and we are running behind in giving. Income for May was approximately $30,000 over what was anticipated, but we are still running behind year to date by about $77,000. Also, budgeted income for June is $219,000 and thus we need $296,000 to reach our fiscal year goal. We have some work to do in order to close this gap in June. Fortunately our expenses are less than budgeted and the Elders are grateful for your generosity and remain hopeful that income for this fiscal year will be in line with what was budgeted.
The men’s and women’s retreats are coming up in the Fall, but we’re already taking sign-ups online. You can find details, and register online at ljpres.events. It’s never been easier to sign-up, get connected, and be encouraged.
Our Independence Day All Church Bar-B-Que will be Sunday, July 1st. We’ll all come together for a single patriotic worship service at 10:00 in the Sanctuary followed by a wonderful Independence Day Bar-B-Que lunch with live music in Fellowship Hall. The Bar-B-Que team will be grilling all kinds of delicious food and treats plus all the fixings in the courtyard. Church is open to all, but you will need to purchase tickets for the Bar-B-Que lunch.
