I haven't found a clear articulation of the following on the CRCNA or Network website. When Synod approves the Ministry Share assessment in June 2011, is the assessment and/or related budget for 2012 based on the active professing members over 18 count as of August 31, 2010 - or August 31, 2011?
Timeline:
August 31 2010: Submission of Yearbook counts by local congregations
January 1, 2011: Ministry Shares approved at Synod 2010 implemented
September 2010 - May 2011: CRCNA Ministry agencies sets budgets and BOT arrives at a proposed Ministry Share assessment per active professing member over 18 - based on membership count as of August 31, 2010?
June 2011: Synod sets Ministry Share assessments
August 31 2011: Submission of Yearbook counts by local congregations
January 1, 2012: Ministry Shares approved at Synod 2011 implemented - based on membership count as of August 31, 2010 or August 31, 2011?
