At the Spring regional gatherings held across the diocese, Gail Gauthier, finance officer for the diocese, presented a 2018 narrative budget, which tells the story behind the annual numerical budget. The narrative budget is set out with the diocesan vision as the framework. Copies of the narrative budget have been sent to all parishes for distribution to parish council members. Limited additional copies are available from the synod office (900 Vancouver St, Victoria) or can be dowloaded in a printer-friendly format here.
