    If they're are the church leaders, yes. Can you elaborate on your question? 

    i don't really think so , i think that would be the job of the trustees,.

    If its the pastors family, I dont think its ethical, but dont know if it is legal.

    the mafa does they own the chapels

    From: http://www.freechurchaccounting.com/internalcontrols.html


    For a church: The offerings should always be controlled by at least two non-related individuals. Members of the offering committee should rotate periodically...if possible.


    They should fill out a Collection Count Summary and sign in ink to verify their accounting.


    Then another individual is responsible for recording the contributions to each family’s contribution record and to the general ledger and then depositing the funds in the bank as soon as possible.


    Thirdly, another unrelated individual who has not had any access to the funds should perform a bank reconciliation each month. etc.
