Treasurer’s Office Seeking Your Financial Leadership Best Practices
The Conference Treasurer’s Office is seeking input for a guidance document to be shared with local churches on proven best practices for financial leadership in these tough economic times. Examples may include, but are not limited to, ideas for creative ways to save funding or cut expenses, successful ways churches have increased givings and donations, and ways churches have found to communicate financial information effectively. Most everyone are  experiencing difficulty in these lean economic times and the conference would like to provide a forum for sharing ideas and experiences with others. The NC Cconference is home to some very creative leadership so please help others benefit from your experiences. Send ideas, experiences and stories to helpdesk@nccumc.org. They will be posted on the Treasurer’s Office website and the results shared in a compiled, written format. If you can share ideas but prefer not to be identified by name or church, list that in your request and neither your name nor your church name will be identified in any posting.
