Welcome to our Prayer Station Journey! It has been designed to help explain where the gifts you give actually go and to show you clearly the amount of money it takes to operate a building of our size and run programs in a fiscally sensible way. v Our total Operating Budget for 2026 is $243,120.00. Currently, our budget is in line with our income. Your Finance Team is working hard to be frugal and responsible with the financial resources that you have blessed our church with.

This pledge drive is a six month campaign commitment covering July to December of 2026. We will have another pledge drive this fall to set our budget for 2027 as we are working to return to a January to December giving cycle to align with our budgeted fiscal year.

vApproach this journey in a prayerful manner ever seeking how you are called to help us move toward living out the mission and goals of GUMC and growing our congregation. There are great things happening here! Never doubt, your presence and involvement are an important part of bringing the Holy Spirit to life within our church. Once the Holy Spirit is ignited in us, we must be bold in sustaining and spreading its energy!
