How do you provide oversight/supervision for your classis treasurer? We are rewriting the finance committee mandate as our budget process has changed recently and would like some other ideas about effective supervision for our treasurer.

Hi Elizabeth, sorry for this long delayed response. I can give you what is done in our classis. Our classical treasurer is part of our Finance Services Team, a classical committee. That team reviews with the treasurer monthly statement of accounts. One of its members is a retired controller in the private sector. That talent helps in simplifying the review of accounts. If I'm not mistaken, they meet once every two months. The Finance team then reports the latest review of accounts to our Classical Ministry Board (CMB) composed of leaders or reps form our various classical ministry teams. Overall, the Treasurer disburses classical funds strictly based on specific mandates by Classis or the CMB. I hope this helps!
