  27. East Iowa Presbytery found that it had run out of money and had to do something different. Their plan included at its center the intention that: • the Presbytery would shift its cultural focus from being a staff-driven, vertically organized entity • to one in which we live together as a covenant community governed chiefly by elected groups of presbyters, • a more horizontal organization in keeping with Presbyterian principles and practices, • aiming to embrace and live out the central idea that we belong to one another.

  28. What now? • Discuss next steps in a few minutes… • Build the 2020 budget off the “Controlled Descent” model.

  29. Controlled descent • With falling incomes, use reasonable cost controls. The following are our assumptions for the 2020 budget. • Hold per capita constant for 2020 • Savings on office rent, maintenance, cleaning • Unpaid per capita continues to exceed $20,000 annually • Visioning becomes 15% of total expenses, about an $11,000 reduction. • Staff salaries frozen at current levels for one year.

  30. Per Capita (current budget model) • Per capita • Generated by the generosity of churches in support of Pres., Synod, & GA. Per member charge20192020 Presbytery $21.46 $21.46 Synod 3.81 3.81 General Assembly 8.95 8.95 TOTAL: $34.22 $34.22

  31. Next steps: • Praise God that Christ has given us the opportunity, resources, and time to discern God’s will together. • Thank you, our churches, for your continued involvement and support! • Embrace Admin’s 2020 plan, while investing time for Leadership, Admin, and Visioning to help us explore the possibilities, before our current model is no longer viable. • Join the conversation! Speak to nominating committee about where you might fit. • Stay tuned for upcoming news on town hall opportunities. • Pray – discern – pray – discuss – pray – propose – pray – act. • Trust God will lead us down the super-highway to our new reality. (Isaiah 55)
