Ever wonder how to take minutes at a board meeting?  Look no further, this resource has everything you need to know about taking minutes at board meeting and a whole lot more.  Everything you need to keep accurate and reliable corporate records is contained in this resource

Did you know that the church is the 2nd most sued entity type in America.  Ever since 1992, church lawsuits have risen by over 1000% and at an alarming rate,

litigators are successfully piercing the corporate veil and are going after its pastors and directors on a personal level.


That is why reverend Raul and his wife Genel have created this new resource. After researching the matter and many hours consulting with attorneys, a new "Corporate Records" book was specifically designed and created for churches and ministries.

 

Did you know that the reason why so many litigating attorneys have successfully pierced the corporate veil and successfully sued the pastors and directors of churches and ministries on a personal level is because churches were not able to successfully produce their records which proved that they were operating as a corporation.  Being incorporated is not enough, courts must see that you also operate as a corporation.

By following the steps in this manual, and by using the custom made Corporate Records Notebook that we provide, your church or ministry will have all of its records in order and prove that it operates as a corporation and increase the security of its corporate veil.  Packaged together is also the corporate records binder, made of high quality 1 and 1/2 inch steel ring designed to hold 5 years worth of minutes before it gets full.  The corporate seal is made of stainless steel and will last a lifetime.  additionally You will be able to keep all of your corporate records sorted by heavy duty tabs designed to keep church and ministry records in place.  This is not a general non-profit corporate kit.  it is specifically designed for churches and ministries.
