CHURCH ACCOUNTING PACKAGE

Using Funds From the Church to Establish Transitional Housing

by Cheryl
(USA)

If the church ceases to operate as a church in its primary mission (lease on building used for church services is running out with no plans to renew) and the pastor does not want to dissolve the nonprofit church but instead use the assets to establish a transitional housing ministry, is it legal to use the funds from the church to establish her residence for transitional housing? Does this fall into the category of private inurement?

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 =)
