New Instrument
For the Fellowship Hall!
|
| With Council approval, the Fellowship Committee has established a fund to purchase a new
keyboard for the Fellowship Hall. A new keyboard similar to the one purchased for the
sanctuary will run between $4,000-$4,500. If you would like to contribute to this endeavor,
please place your contribution in the offering plate and mark your envelope/check “keyboard
fund.” It would be fantastic to dedicate this instrument around Homecoming June 3, 2012!
THANKS to you the keyboard fund is growing $1400+to date!

WE HAVE MET OUR GOAL!!! Those attending the National Youth Gathering would like to give a
great big shout out to Friedens’ Congregation and friends for helping us meet our goal of $10,000!!
We are very excited and all major expenses have been paid. We are now working on the cost of meals and
small things that will come up along the way. Thank you to everyone who has supported us in our dreams
for attending this Gathering! Without your support this would not be possible.
A separate account has been opened for National Youth Gathering/Mission Work. This account will be
used for all big mission work the youth want to attend. The money that is left over from Gathering will
remain in this account and will be used to further fund mission work for our youth.

Hotel - $556 deposit paid - remaining balance of $3,500-$4,000 to be paid
Train - $3,153.50
