So if you are on the fence whether to classify a worker as an employee or an independent contractor ...go ahead and classify and pay your worker as an employee!
Bookkeeping for churches is our passion and specialty! We enjoy the task of keeping records for churches and small non-profits. Many bookkeeping mistakes can be avoided if the bookkeeper was trained properly.
Avoiding this error in church bookkeeping is by taking the time to look at every person you pay for a service. You can then use the IRS guidelines (link below) to determine if they should classify themselves as employees with payroll tax withholding, matching or independent contractors.
Your church will be equipped to handle the accounting duties associated with programs such preschools or fundraising. This will make sure these programs and your ministry are a success.
Trust and respect are the cornerstones of a good client relationship. We believe listening is essential. Our mission is to help you grow and succeed in your religious organization by providing financial guidance and financial leadership.

Churches call the traditional balance sheet a statement of financial position. It uses the accounting equation “Assets = Liabilities + Equity” to show a snapshot of your organization's financial health. It also shows the current balance of each of your funds if you've been implementing fund accounting for your church.
Churches And Transparency
The standards of the Evangelical Council on Financial Accountability require that member organizations provide audited financial statements on request.
Churches and religious nonprofits must maintain highly accurate accounting and bookkeeping records in order to maintain their nonprofit status, budget accurately, and provide reporting to government entities and their parishoners or members.
