Since the overall spreadsheet is more detailed than most people find helpful, this is a very basic summary. If you have questions or would like more information, please speak with Pastor Mat or a member of the Board.

Narrative
Bethel’s fiscal year runs from April 1 to March 31. As of the end of September, we are halfway through our fiscal year.
- We are happy to see that our expenses are currently right in line with our budget expectations.
- Bethel’s income is still lower than we had hoped by about $395 per month. If you feel led to begin giving to Bethel or to increase your usual contribution, it will make a real difference in the reach of our ministries. (See our Online Giving page.)
Thank you for your generosity and prayerful discernment as together we continue to extend Christ’s love through Bethel’s ministries.
