Helpful Hint – Encouraging Word – July 2015
Develop a Ministry Plan, Then the Budget
Develop a ministry plan and then determine what forms and levels of support are needed to fund it. Many look at what they think support will be and then craft a ministry plan around that level of support, thus never giving the congregation the opportunity to pray for and respond to the plan with their offerings.
