Stewardship & Finance Ministry
At the Congregational meeting on May 21, we acknowledged what a gift it was to gather in person and share a live Fellowship Circle!
The Treasurer’s report was well received, and the new budget approved. We send another huge thank you to all who continue to support our Congregation with their Time and Talent–as expressed by their presence at the meeting and willingness to join Ministries for the coming year.
Members were also acknowledged for sharing their financial Treasure in the form of an annual pledge. Because of those pledges, we can look forward to a rich and rewarding year ahead!
Additionally, the report of Stewardship and Finance regarding the actions called for in last year’s Strategic Plan was well received by the members present. In addition to expanding our fundraising efforts through the arts and live events, we plan to continue to live and work in harmony with the dynamic young people and the staff of the Birch School, who share and care for our space!

With gratitude, hope and enthusiasm,
Stewardship & Finance

2023 Pledge Drive
Throughout the turbulent year just passed, our Congregation has adapted. Many are using more internet than ever before! As we have no clear knowledge of the future, our April Pledge Drive will, again, be a virtual event.
This is our opportunity to show our gratitude. To give back financially to the best of our ability, and to do our part to ensure the ongoing presence of
the UUCRT in the Hudson Valley.
This year’s Pledge Drive runs from April 1 – 25 in order to prepare and distribute the proposed budget before our May 17 Annual Congregational Meeting. Thank you for using this form to indicate your generous support for the financial future of the UUCRT.
2020 Pledge Drive
Due to COVID-19, the Pledge Drive Luncheon was cancelled for this year. To make your pledge, an option has been added to the WebPay page of our website or you can find it under the DONATE tab.
2019 Pledge Drive
On April 14, 2019, a “Soup-er” Lunch was served in the Fellowship Hall, as members gathered to consider the future of the Congregation at the Annual Pledge Drive. Food and fellowship followed by budgetary information with Q & A from our Treasurer, Alan Horne, rounded out the day.
Dawna from Clarke’s Ice Cream provided a Soup-er Lunch! Food nourishes the Congregation
