Hi Guys ~

Scott asked me if I'd get ahold of you to approve the following motion regarding John DePasquel.  He needs it approved before Nov. 1.

Please read and either e-mail me your response or call me at 319.5720.

God bless!

Julie

Subject: Parsonage Allowance - John DePasquel

Julie,

We are going to have John DePasquel live at Mercy House for November and December to give him time to find a place to live.  Typically, the value of the housing would be considered compensation for income tax purposes, but this can be avoided for ministers if the church board approves a parsonage allowance (similar to the housing allowance we approve for our ministers).  We cannot approve this retroactively, so we would need to have the board approve this prior to November 1st. 

We would need the board to approve the following motion:

"Motion made, seconded and carried to approve a parsonage allowance for John DePasquel to stay rent free at Mercy House for the months of November and December 2013."

Please let me know if you have any questions.

  - Scott
