I also recommend this article on church appropriations since it raises some issues that will affect the church in the future:

Beginning in April, the committee will visit each division to scour financial records, spot economic strength indicators and weigh employee benefits. After reviewing between 500 and 700 church entities for 1995 and 2005, the committee will compare results for the two study years and make recommendations independent of appropriations history.

On the table is US$68 million in annual appropriations for Adventist Church institutions and divisions worldwide and any redistribution would better accommodate each region’s challenges, opportunities and economy, Lemon says.

Currency exchange is particularly dicey, says Jóhann E. Jóhannsson, treasurer for the church’s Trans-European region, first on the committee’s list for review. Because appropriations are distributed in U.S. dollars, it can be “a struggle” to balance the budget in regions with incongruent currencies — take the British pound against the weak U.S. dollar, he says.
