July 1, 2005 – June 30, 2006
Fiscal year 2005/06 has drawn to a close, and we are delighted to report that once again the Christian Reformed Church has been blessed with an increase in giving.
You can find a complete report on ministry shares and other gifts by referring to the chart on this page. Here are a few of the highlights:
-
Total ministry-share receipts are up by $1.7 million compared to the previous year.
-
Above ministry-share gifts were in line with the prior fiscal year.
-
Estate gifts were up just over $460,000.
-
Disaster-response donations, which are event-related, were down $1.2 million during the 2006 fiscal year, with the generous outpouring of gifts for the victims of the hurricanes along the Gulf Coast not quite matching the donations in the prior fiscal year, which included the Asian tsunami relief in December 2004.
