In m id-M ar ch I sent an em ail to the congr egation to infor m you of the state of our chur ch finances along w ith a statem ent on ?Faith and Finances: W hat New Hope Chur ch Believes About Stew ar dship.? We believe that it is im per ative that w e be as for thr ight and tr anspar ent w ith you as w e possibly can about how your gifts to the chur ch ar e used to suppor t our m inistr y as w e seek to Rea ch people for Chr ist, Root people in Chr ist and Relea se people to ser ve Chr ist. If you w or ship w ith us dur ing the next few Sundays, you m ost likely w ill notice som e new additions in our sanctuar y that ar e dr aped in black fabr ic. These ar e stained glass w indow s that w ill be unveiled at the Tow n Hall M eeting betw een w or ship ser vices at 10:15AM on Sunday, Apr il 9. Because our financial situation at New Hope continues to be quite tenuous, I believe that it is incum bent upon m e to m ake it absolutely clear that n o Gen er al Fu n d con t r i bu t i on s w er e spen t f or t h e pu r ch ase or i n st al l at i on of t h ese st ai n ed gl ass w i n dow s. The pur chase and installation of the stained glass w indow s is a fund r aising endeavor of the New Hope Endow m ent Fund, w hich is a non-pr ofit cor por ation separ ate fr om New Hope Chur ch. Last spr ing and sum m er a select gr oup of high capacity contr ibutor s w er e solicited and given the oppor tunity to donate a stained glass w indow for the sanctuar y by m aking a significant gift to the New Hope Endow m ent Fund. As par t of their gift, they w ill be r ecognized on a donor plaque that w ill be hung on a w all near the entr ance of the sanctuar y. These gifts have significantly incr eased the pr incipal am ount of the Endow m ent Fund, m anaged by The Colum bus Foundation. W ith the incr ease in pr incipal, the Endow m ent Fund w ill be able to ear n significantly m or e annual inter est and, consequently, w ill be able to incr ease the num ber of gr ants given annually, the am ount of gr ants given annually, or both. The New Hope Endow m ent Fund gr ant guidelines do not per m it funds to be used for New Hope Chur ch oper ating expenses. In 2015 and 2016, gr ants w er e given to com m unity or ganizations w hose m issions fit the cr iter ia established by the Endow m ent Fund. If you have additional questions about these stained glass w indow s or how they w er e funded, I encour age you to speak w ith m e, Chur ch Adm inistr ator Todd Al l es, Endow m ent Fund Boar d Chair Har r y Gar dn er , or any m em ber of the New Hope Endow m ent Fund Boar d. I?m sur e that all of us w ill enjoy these lovely additions to our sanctuar y and I encour age you to join us for our Tow n Hall M eeting on Apr il 9 w hen they w ill be on full display.
