Finance Ministry

The Finance Ministry Team’s role in the life of Mountain Shadows Presbyterian Church (MSPC) is to prudently manage all financial assets and to help generate giving amongst the congregants.

Procedures

  • The Team works closely with the office manager to ensure that all financial activity is accurately recorded and reported to the Session and, ultimately, the congregation. A primary focus of the Team is to ensure that all funds are applied for the use and purpose intended by the giver. Team activities help to provide the congregation high confidence that the financial and stewardship commitments of the church are met.
  • Financial reviews and written procedures are approved first by the Team and then presented to Session for acceptance. The procedures call for adequate written documentation controlled through both the “Green Sheet” and Power Chruch software. The Team accounts for deposits through deposit worksheets when recording offerings and other gifts and receipts.
