The gathering and handling of funds for the Lord’s work is a sacred responsibility. The proper channel through which these funds flow is first from members to the local church, where the treasurer receives the funds. The treasurer disburses funds intended for local church purposes. The treasurer holds the funds in trust and then passes on to the Conference treasurer funds intended for Conference or general purposes.

The treasurer of the local church works under the direction of the Board. Treasurers do not act independently. They disburse funds only by action or authority of responsible committees.

The audit questionnaire should be completed by church treasurers who have been requested to participate in a church audit. Each church, company or group is to be audited by the Conference finance team on a regular basis as per the guidance of the Seventh-day Adventist Church Manual. Please note that the audit function is designed as a protection activity to safeguard local church finances and to identify any areas in which a local church may require the advice and support of the Conference finance team.

Following completion and submission of the audit questionnaire, please forward requested supporting documentation to the Conference finance team at [email protected] to allow for the church audit to be undertaken.
