This is a snapshot of our parish financial picture as of November 23. It focuses on tithes & offerings, which represent 95% of budgeted income for the parish. It also shows a year-to-date summary of parish expenses.  

2021 giving has remained on par with 2020 giving but has not yet risen the additional 20% needed to fulfill our aspirational 2021 budget, which is the level needed to fund the staffing discernments the congregation has made over the last few years. (See the Budgeting in the Wilderness article for more information on this.)  

Please take a moment to review your 2021 giving as you prepare to pledge your giving commitment for 2022. If you have questions about how much you’ve given so far this year or about alternate ways of giving, including gifts of stock, please contact Parish Administrator Ann Erickson at 206-783-2350 ext. 302 or administrator@prlc.org.
