ChurchBiz

We Administer so That You Can Minister

About

ChurchBiz was founded by Rick Peralez in September of 2008 with an initial client base of three newly planted churches. That started our journey to provide outstanding bookkeeping, financial reporting and payroll services for churches at an affordable price. Today, we support churches throughout the U.S. and we see an opportunity to continue to use our resources and knowledge to advance God’s Kingdom through the local church.

Quote Mark

“ChurchBiz has been monumental for helping us not only get off the ground as a brand new church, but also have stability and vision as we've grown. I know many pastors struggle getting bogged down in the details of finances, and ChurchBiz removes this burden, allowing us to focus on the work of ministry, while still having confidence everything on the backend is set up for success.”

"We have been using ChurchBiz for 5 years now, and they have been invaluable to the operations of our church. It gives us such peace of mind to put this important area of our church into the hands of professionals. It really is a one-stop source for most all of our financial service needs. In addition, we have a certified public accountant on hand to consult with and give us guidance when financial things come up, as they always do. Steve is just a phone call away, and he is always knowledgeable, helpful, and warm. A great partner in the mission of our church. I couldn’t recommend them more highly."
