Sr. Warden writes to the Parishioners of St. John’s Church - Versailles, KY

In August, 2002 our previous rector Alan Hansen left the parish. The bishop met with the vestry and recommended that the vestry be frozen until a new rector was called. We have remained in place in an effort to keep the wheels onand I think we have been successful in doing so. When Alan left, we were in a critical financial crunch, and the effects of 9/11 added to the crisis. The vestry worked diligently to reduce operating costs, and with the involvement of our dedicated parishioners, we were able to turn things around. Our year-end balance sheet shows assets of:

$246,165.48 in checking, money market, and investment accounts

$1,056,972.58 in buildings and property

$561,383.59 in restricted funds/trusts

Total Assets of $1,864,521.65.

In December, the vestry made the following charitable contributions to various, deserving, outreach ministries:

Salvation Army - $2,000.00

Food For The Poor - $5,000.00

St. Agnes House  3,000.00

Shoes For Kenya - $1,500.00

10 Scholarships for Youth Quake - $1,800.00
