1. Advice re Future Fund- Communication to Congregation Members.
Please find attached for information purposes and approval to use and proceed with the covering Advice/ Letter to be used with several brochures.
This is a work which has been progressed through both Finance and Communication Committees and has the support via John Snare and me. Through his involvement in Communication Committee Rev Ian Ferguson has assisted, recommended changes, and added to simplify our letter.
WE propose that Allison and our Ministers sign the letter .
It will be attached to 2 brochures which are still being finalised :
- GWUC The Future Fund
- Uniting Church – Synod Brochure re Gifts, Donations and Bequests.
The first brochure has been reviewed and there remain several amendments. These will be completed by Joanne following the Fete.
The process will then revert to the development of the Communication tools being :
- Article for Kingsway ( November 2024)
- Emails directed to each member of the Congregation with a pack consisting of this letter and the 2 brochures.
- A further supply to be held by the Office for handing out to those who call and request
- A letter and pack posted to the small group who don’t have access to internet / email (about 40 people).
We will also send a final copy to John Yates, our Auditor, purely for information as he has been engaged in the development process.
I have agreed to send a copy of the pack to Karen Bell of Synod Secretariat. She has been involved in our work.
We will supply Church Council with the final Brochure from GWUC and attach a copy of the existing UCA Brochure (hopefully in early November 2024.
It is important to recognise that we now have a product, after all this work, to be available to Congregation members top make Gifts and Bequests for use by GWUC in our usual activities.
Any Bequests which include ties or obligations as to actions will be managed by Synod and then delegated to us.
This has been a long process, with many people involved. We are confident that we now have a strong suite of products including the Future Fund.
We will develop a follow up approach for late 2025.
