Additional Product Info

RESOLUTIONS - What are they? The means of recording an action taken by the Board of Directors, authorizing or approving all actions in advance of the act. i.e.: authority given to the pastor (and/or) to spend church money’s otherwise it always takes Board action.

RATIFICATION - Because the Minute/Record Book is the official “Memory” of the corporate entity, it is imperative to have good records, without “gaps.”  If, and when we discover that a business action has been taken (i.e.: a change of signatures on the Church checking account) without a resolution, we must get it into the Minutes. But how? A back dated resolution is illegal, as that would be falsification of records. The only legal way, is to write a Resolution "Ratifying" the past action(s). This is how thousands of Corporations do it every day in America, and SAMPLES will show you how to do it.

This is a great 'companion manual' to The Church Administration ‘How To’ Manual for there is nothing repeated. 

Sample Policies, Plans, and Forms:
  • Harassment (Sexual) Policy. The US Supreme Court has ruled that the Employer (The church), is fully responsible for any harassment action perpetrated by a supervisor – even if the church Leadership was not aware of his actions. You really need this Policy;
  • Nursery Policies. Learn why you should stop changing diapers – Right Now;
  • Youth Dept Policy,
  • HIV/AIDS position statement and Policy;
  • Discipling Policy (vs. counseling), with liability release forms;
  • Benevolent Fund Policy. Learn the IRS guidelines for a successful program;
  • Church outing / liability waiver forms for minors and adults.
  • Health and Medical Plan [A Sample] based on IRS provisions Sections 105 & 106 of the Internal Revenue Code – more specifically Publication 969 “Health Reimbursements Arrangements” [HRA]

The use of these samples will help you evaluate your church policies, practices, and minutes of the meetings of the corporate board of directors.

  • A review of this SAMPLES manual will serve as an important checklist for your Church;
  • A must for every Pastor, Administrator, and Board Member;
  • A great training tool for the Church of every size - large, small or just beginning.

Church leaders recognize that we are in increasingly dangerous times. Lawsuits are on the increase. Leaders that will wisely invest time in developing policies, will avoid a lot of grief and perhaps even a lawsuit. We must screen out the pedophiles who would volunteer to work with the children in the children’s department.

There is absolutely nothing like SAMPLES on the market today. They have been reviewed by an Attorney to ensure the materials reliability.
