Endowment Fund
The Endowment Fund provides a way in which members or friends of St. John can contribute to the ongoing and future missions of our church. This form of Christian stewardship provides a long term resource for projects and programs that is separate from the operating budget of the congregation. Gifts to the Fund may be designated for specific projects determined by the donor. However, when gifts to the Fund are not designated for a specific purpose they become part of a very special opportunity for continuing support of work at St. John, In this case the Fund, according to the by-laws of the congregation, carefully invests these gifts so that earnings become available for support of non-budgeted mission needs,while the principal remains intact to continue to be invested for future mission needs.
