October 21, 2025 VESTRY NOTES 

Lindsay McHugh opened the meeting with a prayer.  Treasurer Neil Marks presented the September finance report, which showed income was trending on budget due to pledge prepayments but expected this will level off in the coming months.  Some expenses were tracking ahead of budget expectations, even with the recent insurance payment to cover the damage caused by the car running into the Parish Hall building and the Little Apple Arts contribution for the stage floor refinishing. The budget deficit at year end may be larger than originally budgeted.  Discussion on the process and financing the Aspirant’s Fund continued.  Plans for the upcoming Ministry Leader retreat scheduled for November 16th were finalized. The vestry evaluated their personal core values and its relationship to the parish’s value statement.  Dan Mitchell noted that the tri-annual Non-profit application was filed with the township.  Aleeda Crawley provided an update on the upcoming Annual Meeting and will be forming a Nominating Committee.  Chris Kelly closed the meeting with a prayer.
