It's already June, and in the midst of celebrations and planning for the future, we are almost at June 30, the end of the current fiscal year. June 2024 is the time that all 2023–24 pledges should be fulfilled with gifts so those gifts can be included in the closing of the 2023–24 fiscal year and reflected in the church's balance sheet to start the next fiscal year. Everyone's support in fulfilling the pledges of support they made a year ago in the spring of 2023 is greatly appreciated.

I will be using UUC Connect to send PDF reports to everyone with pledges for whom we have an email address on record. If you do not have an email address on record, you will receive a printed statement. If you prefer to receive a printed statement rather than email, please contact me at the church office.

The email that I send will be a message with a link to your personal PDF file on UUC Connect. The email itself will not contain an attachment, in an effort to secure your personal financial information. The email will be from the church via "Realm," which is the name of the software platform on which UUC Connect is based. Our software provider makes every effort to avoid having these emails get labeled as spam or phishing, but it sometimes is. You may need to check your Junk Mail or Spam folder to locate this automated message.

If you don't receive your message from UUC Connect about your 2023-24 pledge statement by June 15, please contact me at the church office and I will get you a copy. And of course, if you have any questions about your pledges, balances, or gift history, please contact me to discuss. Thank you for your support!
