C. WHAT ABOUT THE MONEY!
1: Money is the fruit of generosity, it can grow on
well-tended trees.
2: An updated shopping list of needed repairs and
improvements (with projected costs) is helpful
and keeps the church buildings in mind.
3. Deferred maintenance always means the
delayed whole is more than the timely parts.

WHY DO WE DEFER MAINTENANCE?
LACK OF TECHNICAL OR PROCEDURAL KNOWHOW? SEEK HELP FROM PMT OR SISTER
CHURCHES
 INADEQUATE FUNDS? DO YOU HAVE A CASE FOR
ASSISTANCE? IS THE CONGREGATION AWARE?
 TOO MUCH RESPONSIBILITY FOR TOO FEW
MEMBERS? REORGANIZE BUILDING CARETAKERS

 WITHOUT ACTION THE USUAL RESULTS:
EMERGENCIES AND INCREASED COSTS
