Empowering Your Ministry Through Specialized Financial Support
Welcome to Heartwood Financial Planning, where we understand the unique financial needs of pastors, church staff, and faith-based non-profits. Our mission is to provide comprehensive, customized financial solutions that address these specific needs, enabling you to focus on your calling and ministry.
Comprehensive Financial Planning for Pastors
As a pastor, your financial situation is unlike any other. We specialize in creating tailored financial plans that optimize your housing allowance, prepare your taxes with clergy-specific considerations, and secure your future with robust retirement planning. Our goal is to provide peace of mind and financial stability so you can focus on your congregation and community.
Low-Cost Church Retirement Plans
Pastors have unique retirement plan benefits, but it requires the right kind of church-sponsored plan. We offer low-cost retirement plans specifically designed for churches, allowing pastors to take advantage of their housing allowance even after they retire from ministry! Our plans come with administrative services that won't add to the church staff's plate, ensuring a smooth and efficient management process. Let us help you provide a valuable benefit to your church leaders and staff.
