The Bishop’s Office provides support and guidance for congregations in the Diocese on fiscal matters – including payroll, compensation, insurance and employer-provided benefits – through the Chief Financial Officer and the Controller. The office of the Chief Financial Officer provides regular communication and training. The pages in this section provide information, forms and links that will help clergy and administrators in their day-to-day business.
Treasurer’s Newsletters offer practical, day-to-day information about the assistance that the Bishop’s office can provide to congregations, along with updates on upcoming events like the annual Business Methods Workshops, and annual enrollment for benefits.
