Immanuel is proud to announce that we were able to increase our giving to New England Synod this year. Back in January, we had budgeted to give $5,000 to Synod in 2018, which is a significant decrease from our 2017 (and previous years') pledges of about $9,000. Due to increased giving throughout the year, and decreased expenses from not having a full time pastor, Immanuel had some "additional" money in December. We voted to send another $4,400 to New England Synod and made a second gift of $500 to New England Synod in honor of Pastor Sproul. In total, Immanuel gave $9,900 in 2018, to support our Synod and all that they do.
