Ministry Accounting Services
Ministry is tough. Managing your church’s finances shouldn’t be. Thats why the Arkansas Baptist Foundation has partnered with WatersEdge to provide affordable accounting services to Arkansas Baptist churches. Our goal is to help you focus more of your ministry’s time, energy, and resources on changing lives with the Gospel – and less on crunching numbers.
The Foundation does not benefit financially from this partnership with WatersEdge.
We are excited to announce that the Arkansas Baptist Foundation has partnered with WatersEdge to offer accounting services to Arkansas Baptist churches. WatersEdge Ministry Accounting Services are designed to lift a burden off churches, who have the option of choosing services based on their unique situation.
