The Apostolic Christian Brotherhood Operations Fund is now set up and is functional. The new fund exists to provide funding for expenditures of the Apostolic Christian Church of America at a brotherhood-wide level including Elder Body and various corporate, legal, and certain legacy costs associated with being a national body. Administration of the fund will be guided by the principle that the brotherhood provides significant strengths and blessings worthy of financial support and that such expenses which support those strengths and blessings are enthusiastically encouraged. An initial grant of approximately $200,000 has been received from HarvestCall as part of the transition of management of these expenses to the new fund. Per our August decision, future funding is to be provided through on-going annual support from our congregations. We would encourage consideration of an annual collection or some form of annual contribution from each congregation in order to meet these needs. Annual reports will be provided, including anticipated needs in the upcoming year. At this point Bro. Martin plans to contribute to this fund out of our general fund collection. This fund was originally paid out of the mission fund but will now be separate.
Bro. Earl and Sis. Dixie Ringger would like to thank you for remembering them at their retirement singing and for the many cards etc.
We are thankful to share that Ethel Finley has expressed a desire to renew her membership in our church. We plan to have a reinstatement on Wednesday, June 12th and Bro. Kent Heimer plans to be with us.

If you have any words of encouragement or concerns, please contact them. We are planning for Diane’s testimony and baptism on June 29th and 30th.
