Church Auditing Department Report, by Robert W. Cantwell
Managing Director, Church Auditing Department

Near the end of each month, I sit down to review bills, credit cards, mortgages, loans, and bank statements. Instead of becoming depressed by the funds that are going out of bank accounts to various creditors, I feel grateful that we survived another month!

Sometimes I wonder if there will ever be a surplus at the end of the month, but even if there isn't I'm grateful that of my "expenses" are contributions to the Church, and that I don't feel that they are wasted.

Even "certified public accountants, certified internal auditors, certified information systems auditors, and other credentialed professionals" agree with me!
