Professional Accounting for Christian Organizations
Financial reporting, CRA compliance, and governance support for churches, Christian schools, and Christian charities that need to get it right — not just done.
What's at Stake
Many organizations operate in good faith yet carry unknown risks — each with real financial consequences.
CRA & Charitable Status
Inaccurate T3010 filings (annual charity return) and unclaimed HST rebates (registered charities in Ontario can recover about 70% of the HST paid on eligible purchases) are two of the most common — and preventable — compliance gaps for charities.
CRA audits, monetary penalties, and potential revocation of charitable status — ending your ability to issue tax receipts and triggering asset distribution requirements.
Financial Controls & Fund Integrity
Absent dual-approval processes, irregular reconciliations, or unreviewed bookkeeping leave funds exposed to errors and misuse — often undetected until the damage is done.
Direct financial losses, erosion of donor confidence, and governance crises that fracture congregation trust and invite denominational or regulatory scrutiny.
Governance & Legal Obligations
ONCA non-compliance (Ontario's not-for-profit law) and boards without reliable financial reporting cannot fulfill their fiduciary duty — creating personal exposure for directors.
Director liability, forced asset distribution on dissolution, and loss of standing with lenders, grant funders, and denominational oversight bodies.
These issues can lead to CRA scrutiny, reputational damage, or loss of charitable status. We help you get ahead of them.
Most of these risks are preventable with the right support in place early.
