The 2023 Stewardship campaign is underway, so watch your mailbox for a letter along with a commitment card and Time and Talent sheet coming your way. Your financial pledge is essential for us to plan our operating budget for 2023.
This year’s theme from the United Church of Christ is, “From Bread and Cup to Faith and Giving” which makes the connection between our experience of God and our generosity as disciples.
The last two years have brought many changes to our church, and your generous gifts have helped us to sustain and adapt new ideas to stay connected during the pandemic and as we go forward. Please join others in our congregation by making a financial pledge for the coming year. And please return your commitment card and Time and Talent sheet by September 11. Thank you.
Adopt-A-Bill—Here’s How it Works:
- Take an Adopt-A-Bill envelope from the display board in the narthex.
- Pick a bill from the board.
- Place your check (made out to First United Church of Christ) or cash along with the bill in the envelope.
- Place the envelope in the offering plate or mail it to the church.
Every contribution is greatly appreciated and helps to support our church.

Purchasing / Reimbursement Policy
A purchasing/reimbursement policy has been approved by the finance committee and the church council and is to be followed going forward. We developed this policy to assist with the following:
» Ensure that the church committees have insight into and approval of purchases being
made against budgeted items for their committee.
» Provide the church treasurer advance notice of purchases that will be made.
» Ensure that the purchases made are accounted for against the appropriate budget line
item or designated fund.
The policy applies to all purchases for the church in excess of $100. A Purchase Request Form (which includes a further description of the policy) is available on the church web site:(firstuccrichmond.yolasite.com) within the Finance News section. A copy of the form is also located within the church procedures binder in the church office.
The Purchase Request Form is to be approved by the chair of the committee responsible for the associated budgeted line item and then submitted to the church treasurer prior to a purchase. After approval by the treasurer, the purchase may be made.
When the items have been purchased, reimbursement is requested using the Expense Reimbursement Form, also located on the church web site within the Finance News section and within the church procedures binder. This form identifies the items purchased and budget line item or designated fund the items fall under. The completed form is signed by the associated committee chair and submitted to the church treasurer for reimbursement.
If you have any questions regarding the usage of these forms, please contact any of the following Finance Committee members:
