CHURCH ACCOUNTING PACKAGE

Accounting for money given for specific use

by Lory
(Pocatello, Idaho, USA)

We often receive money for special programs for the community.

We also receive money for scholarships to church camps and flowers at Easter and Christmas.

Should these gifts be recorded in an income account or can they be put into a Gift Liability account since the money will be used at a later time?

If you want to DIY your payroll, I highly recommend you look at using Gusto! It is very user friendly and their support is awesome! Plus they know how to set up and maintain payrolls for churches and nonprofit organizations.

Note: I am a "partner" of Gusto, but as I have told you before ... I never recommend anything that we or our clients have not tried and love =)
