Finance
Committee
The function of this committee is to prepare a draft budget for the
succeeding year, including the congregation's accepted share
in support of the wider ministry being carried on in their behalf by
the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America and the synod. Upon completion, the
budget is presented to council for its action and later presentation
to a congregational meeting. The committee exercises oversight of
all the financial affairs of the congregation to make sure that they
are being conducted efficiently, giving particular attention to the
prompt payment of all obligations and to the regular forwarding of
benevolence monies to the synod treasurer. They are also
responsible, upon council approval, for the congregation's
investments.
