Additional articles about the themes covered at the assembly will be published in the near future. In this article, we allude to BCC\u2019s annual report<\/a> and briefly summarize the meeting.<\/p>\n

Good planning leads to sustainable development<\/h3>\n

The theme for the 2018 annual report is the sustainable development that allowed us to reach our 120th<\/sup> anniversary last year.<\/p>\n

Med \u00e5rsrapporten inviterer vi medlemmer og alle som interesserer seg for v\u00e5r organisasjon til \u00e5 sette seg inn i hvordan vi driver v\u00e5r virksomhet. I BCC er vi opptatte av \u00e5 bygge opp en solid struktur, b\u00e5de organisatorisk, sosialt og \u00f8konomisk slik at vi sikrer kommende generasjoners muligheter for \u00e5 samles om den kristne tro.<\/p>\n

In the annual report, we invite members, and everyone interested in our association, to acquaint themselves with how we operate and work. Building a solid organizational, social, and financial structure in BCC is important to us, to ensure that future generations can gather around the Christian faith.<\/p>\n

The representative assembly \u2013 well-prepared and healthy numbers<\/h3>\n

After a joint welcome and prayer, BCC\u2019s Chairwoman Berit Hustad Nilsen wished all the participants welcome to the representative assembly. Everyone had studied the case documents ahead of time and could send questions to the Board and administration.<\/p>\n

General manager Vegar Kronstad introduced the financial report from 2018, which shows a surplus of 164 million NOK and an equity of 901 million NOK. The auditor\u2019s and Board\u2019s reports were also presented.<\/p>\n

Hustad Nilsen continued with the summary of the 2018 annual report, the background for the project, and how it builds on BCC\u2019s values for communication: transparency, orderliness, clarity and mutual respect.<\/p>\n

CFO and Board member Tore Aslaksen briefed the assembly on BCC\u2019s long-term financial plan which applies to the current period through 2030. A number of assumptions must be made, but the overall goal is for BCC and its members to experience financial predictability and security.<\/p>\n

Information easily accessible for everyone<\/h3>\n

BCC gets acknowledged for its thorough methods and works well with authorities, charitable organizations, and a number of professional groups.<\/p>\n

We value interest in our association and gladly contribute interesting and correct information about our work and activities. For this reason, we publish weekly articles on our website, respond factually to inquiries, and make our financial statements and annual report easily accessible for everyone.<\/p>\n

As a reader of the annual report, you might find it especially interesting to see how BCC has built a fund over the last ten years to ensure that future generations will also have the means to administrate the church\u2019s purpose.<\/p>\n

Enjoy!<\/p>\n
