  27. The Church expressed 82% support for the Prepare the Way Campaign The Leadership Council has recommended that certain expenditures in the amount of $350,000 be authorized above and beyond the normal church operating budget and that a special fundraising campaign (Prepare the Way) be conducted to raise those funds. This ballot allows each member to express his or her position on this issue, but it is not a binding vote and does not constitute approval of the additional expenditures. The results of this poll will be used to guide the campaign organizers in what steps to take next. Please indicate your position: _82%_ I am in favor of the recommended expenditures and the fundraising campaign. _18%_ I am not in favor of the recommended expenditures and the fundraising campaign.
