[CoC] UCM Committee Budget Requests

[Dan Groberg]

Good morning,

The Finance Committee has started the process of preparing a proposed
budget for the 2022 – 23 Church year, which starts July 1, 2022.

In our governance structure, the budget is guided by our mission statement
and the priorities of the Congregation as articulated by the Board and
Executive Team.

Our Mission Statement is: We welcome all as we build a loving community to
nurture each person’s spiritual journey, serve human need, and protect the
earth, our home.

The Finance Committee has in the past several years asked those who prepare
budgets to explain why any additional funds that are being requested are
needed and what is hoped to be accomplished with the funding. We have also
asked people to let us know how they believe any additional funds requested
will help meet the Church Mission.


*If you as a committee chair, staff member, program or task force leader do
not need any increase or change in the amount budgeted for the current
year, it will not be necessary to submit a request. If we do not hear from
you by February 18, we will use your current budget amount for next year.  *
If you are uncertain as to the amount budgeted for the current year, it can
be found here:

If you don’t need as much as you currently have budgeted, please let us
know how much you need. We are always very grateful for any budget
reductions, no matter how modest.

We understand that there is much uncertainty about the impact of the
pandemic on committee needs. If you have any questions or what to talk
through scenarios, please contact Finance Committee Co-Chairs, Dan Groberg (
dan at dangroberg.com) and Scott Hess (scottphess at gmail.com).

*Please complete this form <https://forms.gle/j5BSdsh5n13x6peb9>
(https://forms.gle/j5BSdsh5n13x6peb9 <https://forms.gle/j5BSdsh5n13x6peb9>)
to submit your budget request by February 18.*

Thank you,
Dan and Scott
