FINANCIAL UPDATE
Q1 | 25/26
July - October
Thank you to everyone who has donated to Bethany this past quarter. Your donations are so appreciated, and needed to continue all of our ministries. The 2024-2025 audit is complete and we ended the year in a net positive position. This is great news! To hear more about last year’s financials, please join us at the Annual General Meeting on October 26th, where I will be presenting our audited financial statements. So far this fiscal year, we were on budget for donations in July and August, and brought in approximately $20,000 less than expected for September. As we move out of the Thanksgiving season and into Advent, I ask that you continue to show generosity by supporting our church and God’s plan for our community.
Kathleen Peirce,
Director of Operations

CHALLENGE
Many of us give when we can or when something moves us—but consistency is what allows the church to plan ministry, support staff, and meet needs reliably. If you haven’t already, would you consider setting up a regular monthly gift, even a small one? Consistent giving helps sustain everything from children’s ministry to community outreach throughout the year. Giving regularly is easy with pre-authorized auto withdrawals, or setting up recurring giving from your credit card. Use the following links to set this up today!
