Most Congregations Cannot Afford Full‐Time Clergy

9

  • Full‐time Clergy Cost is $100,000 ‐ $130,000* per year
  • Average Pledge in the Diocese is Approximately $2,000
  • This Requires 50 – 65 Pledges to Afford a Full‐Time Clergy
  • Currently 43 of 108 Congregations Do Not Have Full‐Time

Clergy

* Actual cash cost for full‐time clergy depends on housing situation (church or clergy‐

  • wned), medical insurance (family, single, etc.) and other items.

– Funding in 2011 ($26,000) and 2012 Budget ($28,000) – Plan remains underfunded

  • Plan assets of approximately $1.5 million
  • Potential gap of approximately $1.0 million

– In 2012 will review assumptions and funding requirements for future years

2012 Congregational Pledge Status

2012 Congregational Pledge Process

19

  • Analysis of past giving highlights two issues:

– Median giving to Diocese is 10% – Congregations have used different ways of computing

  • perating income on which pledges are based
  • Approach:

– Move to uniform definition and use of Normal Operating Income as base – The “Ask” of congregations

  • If 2011 pledge was at or above 10% ‐ increase pledge by 0.5%
  • If 2011 pledge was below 10% ‐ move half‐way to 10.0%
  • Stewardship MUST BE a year‐round discipline
