Finance Council
An active, well-formed Parish Finance Council is a key element for promoting the financial health of a parish, assuring accountability and good stewardship of all parish goods. The Finance Committee works behind the scenes balancing the financial responsibilities and provides advice for renovations and maintenance.
Parish Finance Council members should have the willingness to act in the best interest of the Parish. The Parish Finance Council generally meets quarterly, to address the most pressing financial and temporal matters facing the parish. The Council also addresses future needs and provides recommendations on how best to meet the needs.
You do not have to be an accountant to join this committee. However, certain professional skills or expertise in management, finance, business, law, accounting, engineering, purchasing, construction, maintenance, and/or communications would be beneficial.
