Protecting the Offering – Part Two

Category: Church Financial Security

Overview

In Part One we discussed the different risks that apply to the church offering. In this installment we will discuss how to pickup and count the offering. Most of the risk can be mitigated if you implement proper procedures that provide for accountability in the transport, handling and counting of the church offering.

Pilfering from the offering is one of the most common means of stealing money from a church. Typically the dollar amount is fairly low but easy to be successful in the act of thievery. The ability to remove cash and not be detected from the offering box, plates, safes or lock boxes is eliminated when an appropriate level of accountability is introduced into the handling procedures.

Lets look at the typical means used to collect the offering.
