3 We have started the Ecclesiastical New Year in full swing and invite all women 18 and older to come join us for fun and fellowship while we make a difference in the lives of others. It is our mission to foster love and goodwill, to pledge our assistance to those less privileged, compassion and dignity to the vulnerable, and uplift the disadvantaged. At our first meeting in September we focused on literacy by bringing almost 100 new and used children s books as an entry fee which were distributed directly to children who may not own a book at home through schools and other programs that serve at-risk children. We have pledged to read to the children at the Hilltop Home on the 3 rd Tuesday of each month. The Hilltop Home admits children age birth through six years who have severe developmental disabilities and are medically fragile to the extent that their families are unable to care for them. We again follow our mission to help feed the hungry by bringing a non-perishable food item to each general meeting and we also stand with GOYA to serve at the men s shelter on the 2 nd Tuesday of each month. Contact a Philoptochos member to learn how you can join a team to serve. Yes, we also bake! If your talents do not include baking (or even if they do), we will lovingly share recipes and tips when you join us in baking for our Annual Holiday Bake Sale please see the Church website for our baking schedule.

Motion to approve was made by Mary Helen Winstead, seconded by Rhonda Milkovich. Motion carried. Treasurer s Report presented by David Ford, referred to the Executive Summary (attached). He shared that Holy Trinity is in a good financial position for the month of June. He reported that the Net Ordinary Income has been negative for a while, and he wants to see us in the black this year. John Demos reported positively on Stewardship, with notes showing a 5% increase in parish families pledging and 9% increase in stewardship income. The majority of pledging families are meeting their pledged amounts, with 25% of our income from unpledged funds last year. Overall we show excellent stewardship in our parish. David referred to the Balance Sheet, which currently doesn t indicate funds deposited from the Tooze estate, and answered general questions. Harry Kledaras commented that our property values (equity/assets/net worth) should be indicated on our balance sheet. Presbytera Mary added that our Metropolis supports that, including depreciation of assets. She noted that it would require more work, but can be done. Presbytera offered to guide this process for the parish. John Demos made a motion to approve the Treasurer s Report, seconded by Maria Kamos. Motion carried.

8 General Assembly Minutes Sunday, July 14, 2013 Page 2 Mark presented a brief update on the Tooze estate, reporting that current funds deposited into our operating account totaled $443,000.

The estate should be settled later this year, when a decision on disbursement of funds can be made by General Assembly. Bylaws Review reported on by David Ford, who thanked the Bylaws Committee for excellent work. Some remarks followed on Metropolis compliance and timing for approval, thorough committee meetings and posting of the changes for parish review over the past year. David presented the key points.

Festival Update provided by Harry Costa, reporting a favorable cost analysis so far this year. He thanked all the volunteers who have helped with preparation. This is our 32 nd year, we ve seen many changes through the years, and this will be his last year as chairman. Jason Kekas will become Chairman for 2014, with Frances Mathes stepping in as Co-Chair. A new feature for this year will be a festival app linked to our webpage. Harry restated the critical importance for commitment from the entire parish in moving forward with future festivals. Audit Committee Report presented by Tom Mathes. He reported that the payroll, cash receipts, expenses and disbursements, tray collections, insurance, and profit & loss statements have been audited and show no discrepancies. He made a recommendation that high -resolution photos be taken of Holy Trinity s fine art items (including icons, stained glass, altar items). Since these items are not common to all churches, we need to maintain a clear record for insurance purposes. Mary Helen Winstead made a motion to accept the Audit Committee s report, seconded by Meg Economy. Tom added that inclusion of the audit report is now required with our 1040 assessment to the Metropolis. The Parish Council will follow up with our insurance agent to visually secure the high art items with the best method. Tom also recommended that we have these items professionally appraised.
