Mission: The congregation of Rockfish Presbyterian Church has a deep gratitude for the gifts of God and a joyful generosity of time, talents, and financial resources born of that gratitude. Goals: A. Promote mission awareness and outreach to others in Christ’s name as a primary focus of the church. B. The congregation knows the fruits of its generosity in the past and the opportunities that need support in the future. Strategies: 1. Involve Ministry Teams in developing an annual operating budget including a budget for the Stewardship Ministry Team.. 2. Prepare and present in a timely manner each year a total Rockfish Presbyterian Church budget to the Session for approval, and present and interpret that budget to the congregation at the annual meeting. 3.

Keep the Session informed in a timely manner regarding budgetary irregularities and recommended remedies. 5. Oversee all bequests, investment accounts, and memorial funds including a process for encouraging gifts and bequest and for making appropriate use of these accounts and funds in consultation with the Session and the families involved. 6.
