About the Ministry Resource Center

Ready to Assist Your Church

Our goal is to free you from the financial burdens of the church and the IRS to release you to do the ministry that God has called you to do. That's why in addition to resources on the topic of finances and ministry, The Ministry Resource Center offers various financial advisory services.

Our church has worked with the team at Ministry Resource Center for over five years, and they have been a major blessing to us and to our district...they have saved our church thousands of dollars and I know they have saved the Georgia District between 30-35% on their annual audit. Also, their administration of our payroll will save us an additional 25-30% each year. Their team has structured hundreds of pastoral compensation packages and prepared thousands of tax returns for pastors. They have assisted our pastoral staff with their deductions so that they may obtain the most benefits allowable within IRS regulations without compromising the ministerial code of ethics. Ministry Resource Center would be a valuable resource for your and your church.

Randy Valimont, Senior Pastor, Griffin First Assembly
