Accounting Software for Episcopal Parishes
Support your vestry and treasurer with clear fund balances, stewardship visibility, and financial reports that reflect how Episcopal parishes manage plate, pledge, and restricted gifts.
Challenges we hear from churches like yours
Grain Ledger is built to replace spreadsheet risk with fund accounting that scales.
Vestry reporting and stewardship season
Produce financial statements vestry members can review in minutes, with drill-down available when questions arise during annual meetings.
Diocesan parochial report preparation
Keep your books organized by fund and account so pulling numbers for the annual parochial report is a query, not a project.
Restricted and memorial gifts
Track memorial gifts, capital campaigns, and other restricted purposes with proper net asset classification.
