Budgeting with Congregation Giving Forecasts

Congregational church boards must outline yearly operating budgets based on voluntary member contributions. Managing tithes is difficult due to varying family donation rates.

The Average Giving Index

Rather than expecting a flat 10% tithe from every single family, church financial councils typically use a conservative percentage model. This estimator contrasts projected average congregation income yields against salary and building operations overhead, planning a safe treasury reserve.

How to Use This Tool

  1. 1Input the total active family units in your local congregation.
  2. 2Input the estimated average annual household income of your area.
  3. 3Select the average projected tithe donation rate (e.g. 2% to 4%).
  4. 4Enter sanctuary mortgage/rent and annual pastor/staff salary costs.
