What Makes EASE Specific to Episcopal Churches?
A question often asked is, "What makes EASE specific to Episcopal Churches?".  One of the key elements is a program which prints the Parochial Report - for both membership and finances.  In order to generate accurate membership totals on the Parochial Report, you must keep the types of information needed for the report.  I do not leave it up to the user to figure out what information is necessary.  EASE comes pre-configured so that the types of information maintained by the computer conform with the requirements of the Parochial Report.

Because EASE was developed first and foremost for Episcopal churches, the structure and numbering scheme of the Chart of Accounts, as well as the overall structure of the Fund Accounting system, was designed specifically to comply with the requirements of the Episcopal Church (USA).  As part of the initial setup, I provide a Chart of Accounts that includes the accounts required by most Episcopal Churches already set up for your use.  This Chart of Accounts may be used as is, modified, or deleted completely so that you may build your own Chart of Accounts to fit the specific needs of your church.  The Fund Accounting system allows you to define up to 255 accounting Funds, each of which may be classified according to a user-definable Fund Type, such as Operating Funds or Restricted Funds.  Unlike some other Church Management Programs, EASE does not require all account numbers in the Chart of Accounts to be exactly the same length.  You can set up your Chart of Accounts using whatever numbering scheme you choose.

In addition, when displaying screens or reading the Manual, you will find the terminology familiar to Episcopals.

Who uses EASE?
EASE is presently used in more than 1000 churches in every state and in Canada.  Since the release of EASE for Episcopal Churches, many Episcopal churches have purchased EASE, and the numbers increase each day.  Churches using EASE include Saint George's Episcopal Church.

I have also designed and sold packages for Southern Baptist Churches, The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, The Presbyterian Church (USA), The Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod and United Methodist Churches, as well as numerous other churches and non-profit agencies.

My philosophy.
I am committed to providing a state-of-the-art church management program that is affordable, reliable and most of all, easy to use.  EASE offers ease of use, completeness of features and prompt and polite inexpensive technical support.  In these areas EASE surpasses others which cost far more.  Although you may be able to find programs which cost less than EASE, they do not offer all the features you will need and are not generally designed for Episcopal Churches.  I encourage you to compare EASE to other well-known products such offered by Automated Church Systems (ACS), Membership Services, Inc. (MSI) and PCIS by Cokesberry Electronic Publishing.
