Bermuda-Nova Scotia Regional Council Funding
The Regional Council Executive through its Financial Accountability & Investments Committee is pleased to announce that as part of its ongoing work and commitment to their mandate, stewardship and promotion of the various funds available we have completed a thorough review of all of the funds that are held by the Region Council and have produced a document “Financial Policy Funds Held for Bermuda-Nova Scotia Regional Council of The United Church of Canada” (see below for document link). We encourage everyone to take the time to have a look at the funds available for the use of the ministries in the Region. Funds are available to communities of faith and regional members both laity and ministry personnel to assist with ministry needs and innovations. As well as encouraging communities of faith, laity and ministry personnel to make application for funding as needed, we are also encouraging people and communities of faith to consider donating to any one of the funds that are held by the Region. It is important that we continue to support these funds so they are available well into the future. Thank you in advance for your consideration.
