Accounting Software Built for Baptist Churches
Track tithes, manage designated funds, and produce GAAP-compliant reports your deacons and finance committee can trust. Grain Ledger is cloud fund accounting built for how churches actually work.
Challenges we hear from churches like yours
Grain Ledger is built to replace spreadsheet risk with fund accounting that scales.
Deacon and finance committee reporting
Your deacons should not have to wait until month-end for a clear picture. Generate statements of activities and fund balances that show restricted and unrestricted giving in one place.
Designated gifts and building funds
Missions, building, and benevolence dollars stay separated with a real chart of accounts and audit trail, not side tabs in a spreadsheet that break when someone sorts wrong.
Volunteer-friendly workflows
Route bills for approval, sync the bank, and give treasurers a single place to categorize and reconcile without QuickBooks workarounds.
