And Church Innovations continues to be viewed as a leader in congregational transformation associated with this movement. CI’s leadership role has made change necessary within our organization. Last year we undertook a strategic planning process. In keeping with the plan and in response to the growing requests for our resources, we moved forward to improve the ordering of our consulting and business practices. We sought to establish stability in the delivery of resources, particularly the Partnership for Missional Church. Donors and friends may also notice a change in our financial reporting. After careful review, we determined that reworking our reporting format and related budget practices would give us a more clear and concise picture of our consulting models and operational expenses. We are please to report that for the third consecutive year, amidst these changes, we have received a favorable audit opinion. For a non-profit organization such as Church Innovations, transparency and integrity, especially in the financial reporting is critical and expected. We are very pleased with the audit results and to share our financials with you below. We owe thanks to capable staff, the growing teamwork of our associated consultants, and tremendous support from a strong Board of Directors, especially Gordon Engstrom. We remain confident about our financial future and trust God to work through us as we fulfill our missional vocation. We invite, and are thankful for, your continued prayers and financial support to that end. Please click here to download a .pdf document of CI's audited finances. Peace, Patrick
