How is our church really doing financially? Most parishes have detailed financial statements. However, it is easy to get lost in the minutia and miss the big picture. Moreover, without knowing the key performance indicators (KPIs), metrics that define success and performance comparisons, parish leaders can be unclear about what the numbers really mean.
So how can you avoid focusing on less relevant metrics (e.g., average pledges, percentage of budget raised) and instead appreciate the more relevant financial stewardship metrics and comparisons to relevant benchmarks?
The Stewardship Calling FSA was developed over the last 15 years using best practices and financial analytics adapted to Orthodox Christian parishes and has been used by over 250 churches.

The Stewardship Calling Financial Stewardship Analysis provides a financial stewardship parish dashboard that will tell every parish council and parishioner what is going on in their parish by looking at the most relevant stewardship metrics and data. This PowerPoint document below provides that dashboard a parish can use and a slide explaining how to do a parish proxy tithe analysis:
