CHURCH ADMINISTRATION ::

Management help
• Five different modules of church-management software from Computer Helper Publishing (800-533-5227); one for each of the different types of information the church wants to manage. Thus a congregation pays only for the modules necessary to manage the information. Though most churches do not have many employees, a separate module for payroll functions may be helpful because payroll issues for pastors are so complex. www.churchwindows.com.
• The 5.0 deluxe version of Membership Plus from Parsons Technology makes church management a breeze. Its new reporting format is simple to operate and interpret. The cost is $300. www.parsonstech.com.
• www.score.org This group offers free management consulting to small businesses. Many of the counselors are retired business people who have been there and done that in their business lives so they speak from experience.
• Quicken software www.quicken.com
