Work Trip coming in July!

husband, Terry, will lead a work group of 19 other
The group will be housed at Good Shepherd UCC in
Even now, months after Katrina, the needs of the people are great.
Some of you have asked how you can help with this outreach. The answer is
twofold. First, the group asks for your prayers - for them as individuals
and as a group, and for those in the devastated area, especially those who
will touch and change their lives. Secondly, your financial donations are
encouraged and appreciated. You may wish to sponsor a volunteer by helping
to pay their expenses for the week (food, gas money, insurance and $50 per
person to stay at the church) or perhaps you would like to contribute toward
the purchase of supplies the group will need for their work. Donations can
be sent to Jeanette at,
Work groups have been
cautioned not to bring goods into the area in order to avoid storage
problems and the need to deal with unusable items. They are encouraged to
purchase supplies, including food for the group’s meals, in
Upon their return some members of the group will be willing to
share their experience with church groups. Please contact Jeanette for a
list of possible speakers.

Thank you!
To the NWOA and the Rev. Daniel Busch,
Thank you for your help and support towards my ordination. I enjoyed the ordination service, and am thankful for Dan, as well as Pat, coming down for it. I know it made a full & busy day for Dan. Thanks also for the bible. It’s nice to have thin leather one, compared to my beat-up paperbacks. I’ve received support and encouragement from many quarters in NWOA and ask God’s blessings upon your work. In His Service,
Rev. Mitch Reed

TAX CALENDAR
Important Tax Deadline in July 2006
In addition to the regular semiweekly and monthly withholding requirements, churches should not the following dates in July.
July 1. Now is a good time to review the housing allowance designated for any minister on your staff for 2006. It may be that the allowance designated for 2006 was too low. If so, the housing allowance can be increased for the remainder of the year. Simply have the church board (or other group that designated the original allowance) adopt a resolution amending the allowance. This need not result in any additional compensation being paid to a minister. Rather, a minister’s salary can be decreased by the amount of the increase in the housing allowance. But remember-any amended housing allowance is only effective from the date of the amendment. It cannot be applied retroactively.
July 30. Churches hiring their first nonminister employee (or one or more ministers who report their federal income taxes as employees and who have elected voluntary withholding) between April 1 and June 30 may exempt themselves from the employer’s share of FICA (social security) taxes by filing Form 8274 by this date (nonminister employees are thereafter treated as self-employed for social security purposed).
July 31. Churches having non-minister employees (or one or more ministers who report their federal income taxes as employees and who have elected voluntary withholding) must file an employer’s quarterly federal tax return(Form 941) for the second quarter of 2006 by this date.
