Subscription-based Oversight
ICNU for Churhces
Less Time in QuickBooks. More Time with Your People.
ICNU helps you shepherd with confidence and financial clarity.
Responsive. Relational. Reliable.
You answered a call to shepherd souls.
You didn't sign up to spend hours wrestling with payroll systems, deciphering giving trends, or scrambling to prepare financial reports before elder meetings. Yet here you are, constantly pulled away from pastoral care by administrative tasks that feel endless and overwhelming.
That’s where we serve alongside you.
ICNU offers strategic, ministry-focused support that helps your church move past financial chaos and toward faithful stewardship.
Clarity can’t wait.
We respond quickly and personally when you reach out—because ministry moments matter.
Answers when you need them. Wisdom when it counts.
How We Serve
We're not bookkeepers. We're your ministry operations partner who helps you:
See your giving and spending clearly so decisions honor both stewardship and mission.
Stay audit-ready and compliant without the stress.
Free up hours each week for prayer, teaching, and pastoral care.
Turn elder meetings into vision sessions instead of number-crunching marathons.
And because your congregation's needs can't wait, we respond quickly and personally whenever you reach out. No tickets. No silence. Just faithful support when you need it.
Simple, Transparent Pricing
We make faithful stewardship simple.
One flat monthly fee based on your complexity (pastoral staff like senior pastor, associates, youth pastor, children's director)
One-time setup fee (equal to your first month)
No long-term contract—We earn your trust month by month.

Whether you're managing a tight budget, reconciling inconsistent reports, or balancing denominational requirements with your board's expectations, it's easy to feel like church finances are working against your ministry.
ICNU offers three service tiers, each designed to meet your church where it is—and grow with you as your ministry evolves.
Pricing is based on your operational complexity, measured by the number of pastoral staff on your team (senior pastor, associates, youth pastor, children's director—not support roles like admin, finance, or facilities).

A Note to Pastors
You probably didn’t get into ministry to manage budgets, sort through bylaws, or troubleshoot payroll software.
But here you are—juggling sermons, staff, spreadsheets, and soul care. It’s a lot. And no one taught us this part in seminary.
I know, because I’ve walked with pastors for years. Some are lifelong friends. Others are clients who became friends. A few have let me sit with them in their hardest seasons—through burnout, betrayal, even boardroom chaos. They’ve inspired me more than I’ve helped them.
At ICNU, I prefer to step into the background.
I’m not here to sell you a system. I’m not trying to be your XP or CFO. I’m here to be a trusted sounding board—a problem-solving partner, a strategic guide, and, when needed, an interpreter who speaks both “church” and “reality.”
Sometimes that means helping you clean up the books. Sometimes it’s clarifying roles, hiring well, navigating governance issues, or coaching you through a hard conversation. Other times it’s just hopping on a call to help you think out loud and not feel crazy. (Spoiler alert: you’re not.)
I’ve spent most of my adult life walking alongside pastors—not as their vendor, not as their counselor, but as a friend. Some have invited me into board meetings. Others have called me after resigning in tears. I’ve seen the spreadsheets and the scars. I’ve learned how to listen between the lines—and name what’s often hard to say out loud.
If you’re shouldering more than you can sustain—or just need someone who truly “gets it”—I’d be honored to walk with you.
