How we handle what you give
Every gift given to this church is handled by people who answer to the congregation for it. This site is where that accounting is published: what came in, what went out, and what remains in each fund.
Reports are prepared by the church office, reviewed by the finance committee, and approved by the elders before they appear here. Members can sign in to read the full statements. If a figure does not look right to you, ask us about it.
Moreover, it is required of stewards that they be found faithful. 1 Corinthians 4:2
What you will find here
Monthly statements
Income and expense for the month against the approved budget, with the general fund balance carried forward.
Designated funds
Balances for building, benevolence, missions and any other fund a gift can be directed to, so you can see where a designated gift went.
The annual budget
The budget the congregation approved for the current year, alongside how the year is actually tracking against it.
Your own giving record
Contribution statements for tax purposes are handled separately by the church office. They are not published on this site.

Who can see what
Anyone can read this page. The reports themselves are for members, which means you need an account on this site to open them. The church office creates accounts; ask them if you do not have one yet.
Individual giving is never shown here. No report on this site names a donor or shows what any household gave.
