Financial Report July, 2010

Denise Mistich — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 19:08:37 +0000

The reality for the status of the operation budget is that our deficit is $21, 295 for the first six months of 2010.

On a positive note, our members have honored their pledges. Through six months we have received 97% of our pledged revenue. Expenses remain 11% under budget. Both of these are accomplishments we should be proud of. The cloud is the deficit that we knew going into this year. Another positive accomplishment is we have met our commitment to the Disciples Mission Fund with contributions of $9945.

General Assembly 2011 Nashville

Thomas Kleinert — Thu, 08 Jul 2010 16:07:43 +0000

Nashville will host the 2011 General Assembly of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) next summer. We are excited and honored to have this opportunity to show our friends from across North America and around the world some wonderful southern hospitality.

A Local Arrangements Committee has been established to accommodate the needs of all guests to the Assembly. We estimate that about 400 volunteers will be needed over the next year to implement the preparation and execution of the event, and we would like for as many people as possible in the Tennessee region to be involved.

Check out this list of the committees and a brief description of each, along with a contact person for each committee. If you would like to know more details or sign up to serve on one of the committees, please contact the respective leaders via email.

Today We Rambled!

Denise Mistich — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 19:28:28 +0000

Every Wednesday morning, Vine Street, World Convention and Nouvelle Alliance staff members gather for conversation and prayer. We talk about the important things in our lives, our concerns for others, things we like and don't like. We laugh, sometimes cry, we pray together and begin our day with a since of comradery and friendship we didn't feel before. "We're actually on the same mission!" Today, we rambled!

Special Thanks from Steve Mason

It has been a pleasure to worship, live and grow with you all these past three years. You have provided me with a wonderful church home that has been supportive and life-affirming for me during my Divinity School years. But now I have been called to serve Country Club Christian Church in Kansas City as their Pastoral Resident for the next two years. There, I will be starting a college-aged ministry, work with single older adults and provide general congregational ministry services. So…I have my work cut out for me! But, with a faith in the God who makes a way out of no way and knowledge that I have a network of support that includes Vine Street, I feel confident in pursuing this opportunity.
