Giving Goals

The very best way to make sure your denominational giving goals are paid accurately is to use the Funding the Mission Calculator, which is accessible after you log in to the Funding The Mission site.


To attempt to calculate Manually: 

Calculating WEF

During the Year (How much WEF do we need to send?)

STEP ONE: Adjusted YTD income [minus] Mission Specials = Income Base

STEP TWO: Income Base [times] .055 [divided by] 1.055 = WEF Goal

End of the Year (What percentage of WEF did we send?)

STEP ONE: Adjusted YTD Income [minus]Mission Specials Paid [minus] WEF Paid = Income Base

STEP TWO: WEF Paid [divided by] Income Base = WEF Percentage Paid

Calculating Other Goals

STEP ONE: Adjusted YTD Income [minus] Mission Specials Paid [minus] WEF Paid = Income Base

STEP TWO: Income Base [times] .0225 = P & B Goal (2.25%)

Income Base [times] .0225 = Education Goal (2.25%)

Income Base [times] .050 = District Goal (5.0%)

Calculating Ten Percent Goal

STEP ONE: Adjusted YTD Income [minus] Mission Specials Paid [minus] WEF Paid = Income Base

STEP TWO: Income Base [times] .10 = Total amount needed to reach Ten Percent status for the year
