Success!!!
As many of you are aware, after 16 months of continuous operation, March 2011 was our first month to ever reach our budget of $3000 a month. We also exceeded our budget by a little more than $100 in April 2011 as well.
However, in May, June and July of 2011, support fell to an average of $2400 a month. Summer is always a more difficult time for ministries that depend on support from individuals like you.
Dedicated ongoing monthly giving makes up for $1430 of our $3000 monthly budget at this time. This is $1430 given by 58 individuals.
The rest of our budget at this time is covered by individual gifts each month in varying amounts totaling anywhere from $500 to $1500 a month. This along with a small amount of revenue generated through www.ad70marketplace.com, we have been able to stay afloat.
Together as Preterist's of many different shades and stripes, we've been able to accomplish much over the past 21 months. We're not just broadcasting here folks...We're building an organizational structure that I believe is going to change the World on heart at a time. And for the most part we are working together, even through our doctrinal differences.
However, we are still at a point where we can't do much more than just stay afloat.
Future Growth...
If you haven’t yet become a monthly supporter, please consider doing just that. It is the continuing monthly support that helps us determine where we will be going in the future. And if we can close the gap from where we are, to where we need to be each month, we can then start growing.
Of course we are still happy to receive one time gifts of any size to cover the difference between our current ongoing monthly support level of $1430 and our budget of $3200 a month.
And so I would like to invite the rest of you to help us bridge the gap. All it would take is $5 a month from just 200 people. Or $10 a month from 100 people. Or even $20 a month from just 50 of you would help us get to the point where we can begin to grow.
Thank you for your time.
