FINANCIAL UPDATE - For the month of February, our expenses exceeded our revenue by $3,063. We have a deficit of that amount. A
couple of things stand out; (1) our giving for the month was $2,288 less than was budgeted. (2) our property expenses were $754 more than was
budgeted primarily due to the high fuel bill. For the year to date, Zion shows a deficit of $2,341.
