Announcement
By:
The Rev. Dr. J. Barrington Bates
“Excellence in worship, sufficient pastoral care, and adequate administration.” Now retired as director of congregational development for the Episcopal Church, the Rev. Charles N. Fulton III asserts these three things as essential for growth and vitality of our church communities. The last of these – administration – often proves a stumbling block for smaller congregations, and we in Newark are a diocese consisting mostly of small congregations.

New audit resources available
Submitted by Nina Nicholson on Fri, 02/22/2013 - 10:54am
By:
Paul Shackford, CFO
An annual audit of each congregation is required by the canons of The Episcopal Church (Title I, Canon 7, Section 1(f)-(g)). Not only is an annual audit an important part of ensuring that the finances are being properly recorded and maintained, it is an important part of our stewardship of the assets that God has given to us.
Guidelines for Financial Audits
An annual audit is a canonical requirement of The Episcopal Church. Completed audits must be approved by your vestry and returned to the diocese no later than September 30 of the following year.
