2013 Budget$1,698,650
5.3% decrease from 2012 Budget
Observations
Good attendance Not a lot of debates on issues at hand Time spent on each issue went a lot smoother Not a lot of business items to discuss No leadership trainings for the leaders to learn and take home to
implement Sermons were not strong and connect well with the theme A lot of information, but not practical to take home and
implement More praise and worship bands Invite other guest speakers More breakout sessions

Overall Evaluation So Far
PRODUCTIVITY:• Slowed down in discipleship growth because lack of man power to keep up
with the training, placement and data maintenance.• Need to improve these three areas in order to keep growing.
ENERGY: • Overall passion for growth dropped and slowed down because of inability to
keep productivity above going.• However, members desire to grow still strong.• Attendance for Sundays and Wednesday services are still strong, given that
we are in the summer months.
MORALE: • High at beginning of quarter, but dipped toward summer months.• Spiritual morale still very high; however, organizational morale is down a little.• We need to get our new building going.
