OUR MISSION
In support of our mission, “Revealing Jesus, Making Disciples,” the Treasury Department provides financial and risk management services to the employees, churches and institutions of the Pennsylvania Conference. In addition to overseeing the financial operations of the Conference, the purpose of the department is to process payroll, administer employee benefits, keep accurate financial records, assist in budget planning for each department, churches, and schools, train local treasurers ad risk control officers, and maintain efficient accounts payable management. The objective of the department is to ensure that God’s holy tithes and members’ generous offerings are used prudently, carefully and appropriately.
