The“What If”Fund will be retired at the end of

to fulfill their commitment to the campaign, plus
the offering envelopes distributed through the
end of the year still list that option. In these last
few weeks, funds designated toward“What If”
will be moved to the General Fund. If you have
an automatic contribution set up through online
giving, you will want to change that before the
end of the year.
