Because of numerous legal changes that affect how ministries operate financially, many ministers and clergymen find themselves subject to confusing laws. The confidentiality, accuracy, and excellence that should be maintained in the ministry require the services of someone who has expertise in ministry bookkeeping and IRS guidelines. With more than 60 years' combined experience of providing financial services to the ministry, Chitwood & Chitwood understands that bookkeeping procedures for ministries is a complicated and highly specialized field.

Chitwood & Chitwood's account list includes some of the largest and most well-known churches and organizations, and also many small and medium-size organizations. Whatever the size, the goal remains the same: to provide expert financial advice and counseling, thus enabling ministries to become better and more faithful stewards of what God gives to them.
