The Covenant Financial Leadership Initiative Provides Tools to Help Churches

Congregational Financial Leadership Training

National Covenant Properties offers financial and real estate training sessions intended for church pastors, treasurers, staff, and church leaders. This seminar provides tools to help churches deliver good financial reporting, build healthy and missional financial practices, and understand essential core topics from ministerial compensation to fraud protection.

Attendees will learn:

  • How healthy and missional churches manage their finances
  • How to structure your budget to make key ministry decisions
  • The latest tax regulations for pastors
  • Best practices to communicate the financial reports to leadership and the congregation
  • How to use and interpret financial dashboards, to assess whether your facility is a tool for effective ministry
  • Understand why capital fund-raising is good for your church.

Topics that will be covered:

  • What is the big deal with my church’s financial statements and reporting?
  • Aligning your budget to your ministry plans
  • Ministerial compensation and taxation
  • Fraud risk assessment and prevention
  • Introduction to real estate services
  • Why church buildings matter
  • Capital fundraising

Attendees will receive a financial dashboard for their church and an assessment of their internal controls if they register at least three weeks before the event (you will need to provide the last three years of financial statements).

National Covenant Properties supports the growth of local and regional ministries by connecting mission-minded investments to Kingdom-expanding projects. Our partnership serves individuals, congregations, and organizations who share our commitment to Kingdom-building, today, tomorrow, and for generations to come.

Prior to moving to the USA, I was a professor at the National University of Colombia and served with the International Fellowship of Evangelical Students in Colombia for 16 years. Starting in 2001, I served as InterVarsity National Staff in the USA. I have a master’s degree in Christian Ministries, and I serve in Spiritual Direction to those who want to be fully present and available to God and receive His grace over them. My joy is to see professors and college students coming to know Jesus and being transformed into people that bring the good news of righteousness and justice to others.
