1 Thank you, Layne & Dianne To say that Layne and Dianne have been a blessing to our Royal Lane family, is an understatement. During their year with us, they have involved themselves in every aspect of our ministry. They have worshiped, taught, and studied with us; they have played and celebrated with us; and, they have reached out with us to serve the larger community. Thank you, Layne and Dianne for your servant leadership and your warm encouragement. We are a most grateful congregation.

Like RLBC on Facebook or Follow RLBC on Twitter Financial Update Our pledges and plate offerings through the end of May are running $33,316 (or 12%) ahead of budget, but other revenues, particularly church rentals for weddings are still lagging behind our YTD projections. Even so, our YTD total for offerings plus revenues of $326,514 is a healthy $18,750 ahead of budget and is helping to reduce our YTD budget deficit, down from ($38,232) in April to ($13,641) in May. The YTD deficit is mainly attributable to large property expenditures we incurred in the month of February and additional expenses in Personnel.
