3. St James’ 2013 Financial Update Section 1 – Balance Sheet Section 2 – Review of Endowments Section 3 – 2013 Results of Operations Section 4 – 2014 Budget Discussion

4. Some Important Points before we begin the Financial Review What a Difference a Year Makes! Our Operating Shortfall declined 60% to ($14,000) from ($35,000) –Many people came through and made extra donations beyond their pledges!! Thank you for your praises to God!! Endowment balance is up 31% to $616,000 –We decreased the amount withdrawn from the endowments by 46% Withdraws were only $19,000 for capital projects (as opposed to support operating shortfalls) –Stock market helped, but so did Bequests!! The 2014 Budget is basically balanced on an operating basis!! –It’s based on realistic assessments of likely revenue and expenses No more “faith based or hoped for” income!! Vestry may elect to make withdraws from the endowment in 2014, but they will be for specific projects and improvements not to balance the budget –
