wrth assistance of Central Baptist Chijrth we continue to meet our goals in respect to setf-sufficiency and
providing donations to needy causes both local and worfdwide in ac[x)rdan￿ wth our objectives as 8 chur¢h.
Jt is the policy of the Church that unrestricted fvnds whith have not been designated for a specific use should be
aintained at a level equivalent to be￿een three and six month's expendituiè. The trustees considers that
resetves at this level will ensure that, in the evenl of a significant drop in funding. they will be able to continue the
Church's wrrent actiwties while consideiation is given to ways in which additional fvnds tnay be raised. The
Church is almost at this level.
The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Church is exposed. and are satisfied that systerlls are in
place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
