Finances
-
Budgeting
How your church builds and presents your “church budget” – and even what you call it – can motivate increased generosity.
-
Borrowing
Concrete guidance for church leaders charged with borrowing money.
-
Fundraising
Generous giving in the church does not happen automatically when a person joins a congregation. Part of the mission of the church is to form its members to be givers in life, as well as in the congregation.
-
Investing
Concrete guidance for church leaders charged with investing church funds.
Effective church finances will advance your mission. Effective financial practices will enhance trust, grow giving, and free people’s energy and creativity to focus on mission. This is your one-stop “how to” resource section for Church Finance leaders, especially:
• in smaller churches without paid professional financial management staff
• volunteers called to serve in financial management and oversight roles
Your Conference is a primary resource. It connects with church practices and resources in your area, as well as state regulations. Many have Church Finance resources on their websites or available through their offices.
Do you have resources you can share to enhance this site? Are there other resources you’d like to see? Send an email message to Doris at powelld@ucc.org.
