Diocesan Seminar for Treasurers & Members of Select Vestries



Diocesan Seminar for Treasurers & Members of Select Vestries – Two such seminars have been planned to provide information on financial arrangements etc in our diocese.  It is not easy to understand how it all works. The last Diocesan Concil meeting showed that! The calculations that provide the Diocesan Budget, Assessments etc are not easy to understand; especially for those who have little knowedge of  the previous arrangements. Oh that we could just multiply people by sums of money to arrive at the answer – but investment income allocations, basic common amounts, population and one or two other factors come together to  give us the result. Some parishes have a lot of investment income, some none.
Attendance at seminars like these do help with understanding!
So:
Wednesday, 30th October 2013 in the South School, Abbeyleix
Monday,      11th November 2013 in the Parochial Hall, Bunclody, Co Wexford@
Both @ 8pm
