Digital Bulletin
The elders provided an encouraging annual financial update to the congregation this past Sunday, October 5. As part of the update, they shared a 2 year vision & focus that has been carefully developed over the past few months–after input from both the congregation and the community. Please take a few minutes to listen to the update and to catch the vision for where we are moving toward as a church. This document was shared after the service on Sunday to help explain a little more about this vision and our budget.
If you are a numbers person, please click here for a summary of the budget numbers for the current fiscal year (which started on September 1). We are excited to share a budget that is “balanced” for the first time in three years. Naturally, this budget will only remain balanced as God works through each of us in our giving. We have budgeted our income this year to be at the same level as we have been giving for the past 6 months, which helps to give us confidence that God will continue to provide for our financial needs.
We have prepared an FAQ document to answer some additional financial questions that you might have. As always, we value transparency with our finances, and would be happy to provide additional details or answer any other questions, as necessary.
So, if you have any questions about the presentation from Sunday or any of the details from the budget, please reach out to elders@cgnortheast.com.
To celebrate Hispanic Heritage month, we are having a Ruta de Sabores, where we will visit a different Hispanic cuisine restaurant every Sunday after church. We will gather after the service to give the destination.

Updated Tithes & Offerings
We have just completed the first month of our 2025 - 2026 Fiscal Year and we had a strong start to the year!
Offerings were significantly higher than our monthly budget: $53,700 and our expenses were below budget this month: $32,900 (primary due to timing of certain expenses happening later in the year.)
Obviously, this is a very strong financial start for the year and helps give us confidence as we begin to take actions to live into the vision that the elders laid out on Sunday.
