Dear Franciscan Treasurers,
Greetings to you all.
The pages that are included in this section of the Queen of Peace Website are aimed at Local Fraternity Treasurers so that they might have a single source for documents and forms that will assist them in executing their responsibilities in good stewardship of Fraternity funds.
This is a work in progress and continually under construction. More documents and forms will be added as time goes on. Outdated documents will be removed annually.
Most documents will come up immediately as a .pdf file when you click on them. Reporting forms will be downloaded in Excel (.xlsx) format for you to use in Excel or Numbers.
In the documents that follow you will find that some seem rather old and perhaps outdated. Rest assured that they are current as far as National is concerned. For example, the mileage reimbursement is only $0.30 per mile. That is what NAFRA recommends despite the IRS regulations being considerably higher.
The first document under NAFRA Documents is Fraternity Internal Controls and Treasurer's Guidelines. It is a two part document that is critical for all Treasurer's and Ministers to read and understand. You are required to have this document in your possession at Visitations. Having it in your possession is one thing - but reading it and followiong it is another. Please read it. It will help you understanfd clearly what is required of you. It doesn't have all the details, just the top level stuff to give you a fundamental understanding - the finer details are contained elswhere in the documents provided herein.
Should you have any questions or concerns, or can't find what you need, please give me a call or email and I will do my best to help you. Gordon Walker, ofs (gwalkerofs@gmail.com) or 612-987-1343.
