Finance, Administration, Pensions and Benefits Commission

The Finance, Administration, Pensions, and Benefits Commission exists to support faithful stewardship, integrity, and transparency at every level of the Church’s connection. Appointed by the General Conference and reporting to the Connectional Council, the Commission serves the entire denomination by providing financial oversight, legal support, and guidance in matters of pensions, benefits, and recordkeeping.

Among its key responsibilities, the Commission oversees the general church’s finances, including the Assembly of Bishops and all commissions. It ensures proper financial management through public reporting, annual audits, and preparation of the church-wide budget. The Commission also helps care for our past and future by maintaining the church’s historical archives and supporting the administration of clergy pensions and benefits.

This commission works to support the practical side of ministry so that the mission of making disciples for Jesus Christ can thrive.
