Sugarloaf Pledge Drive Announcement 2014 Updates

Pulling together to make something great happen

Pledge Drive! 90K in pledges to keep the place running, about $1500 family, or about $30/wk.

This year the budget will include a 3% raise for Megan, $10,000 for house repairs (roof, bay window, etc...whatever we can afford to get done with it), OWL training, and ~50% fair share contributions to UUA and JPD.

The proposed budget has been posted in the Yurt.  Please take some time to review the budget.  Kerri will hold a budget discussion soon.

We get pledges ranging from a few dollars to over $100 per week, and it’s all needed and appreciated.

 Low key system this year but not low key in enthusiasm or results.

The pledge drive kick off Pot-o-Gold-luck dinner on Saturday, Feb. 8th was good fun – you can now pledge online using our new system that Adam has developed -- tis on the Sugarloaf Web Site. The direct web link is here:

The Official Sugarloaf Online Pledge Form Link.

You can now pledge by smartphones, tablets, laptops, and all kinds of web browsers -- anywhere and anytime.

Stewardship Sunday officially kicked off the pledge drive – please pledge via cards or online

If we hear from everyone, then we’ll be able to joyfully wrap up
If we don’t hear from everyone, we’ll need to follow up with emails and calls until we do

Remember: You don’t need to financially support the church in order to be a member here, but if you don’t financially support us, the church won’t be around for you to be a member of, at least the way we're used to running it.  We can make different decisions about how we want to run this church, but for now we're saying we like being on this property and we like professional ministry, and so we need to pay for it.

Please give as generously as possible so we can continue to be an inspiration to you and to others who need us.

See the announcement in the digest and on the website for updates.

This will be cool.  Thanks to Everyone for your Support!!
