For St. Richard's, Chichester, Our Lady of the Assumption, Bosham
21st June 2009
This report should be read in conjunction with minutes of the Open Parish Meeting 2009
Fr Kieron notes: "My thanks go to the volunteers on the Parish Finance Committee for producing these figures. On the face of it we are doing quite well, as there is a modest surplus of income over expenditure. However, there is not much slack for complacency! I would like to thank parishioners for their continued generosity, even in these days when we are all tightening our belts. I would also like to urge those who are not yet part of the Gift Aid Scheme, to consider joining. If anyone would like a more detailed breakdown of the figures, please contact the Finance Committee via the Parish Office.
.Please note the following when reading the Parish Accounts statement;
1. Parish Accounts are maintained in line with the proceedures laid down by the Diocesan Finance Office and on completion each year are sent in to be checked and audited.
2. The reason for the difference between the figures given at the Parish Open Meeting and those listed in the Income and Expenditure Statement is that the former included all income received by the parish including stipends, Christmas Offerings etc which go towards the cost of the parish clergy. These are left out of the Income and Expenditure Statement 2008 as the purpose of this is to show parishioners where the monies received came from and how it was spent in running the parish.
