Financial Stewardship for Churches means Good Church Bookkeeping

Our TripleR Process: Record. Reconcile. Report.

When it comes to church finances, there are unique tax, reporting, and compliance issues that need to be addressed. Many churh leaders, volunteers and church staff don’t have the financial expertise and background to manage these small church bookkeeping issues with confidence. That’s where GoodBooks comes in. Lee Ann and the team will teach you how to manage your church bookkeeping using the TripleR System – Record, Reconcile, Report. This process keeps your church bookkeeping squeaky clean and allows you to see what’s really going on.

Documentation

In order to keep your documentation and data up-to-date, you can add our Document Fetching/Data Extraction service for only $20/month. This means even less time spent on your small church bookkeeping.

Protect Against Fraud

Lee Ann Crockett has worked with many churches to deal with and deter theft and embezzlement. Unfortunately, one-third of churches in the US will experience embezzlement. You can read more about this in Lee Ann’s book titled Preventing Fraud in Church Accounting. The important part to note here is that it can and does happen, but you can implement internal systems and controls to help prevent it. We’ll work with you to keep your financials clear, accurate and transparent.
