			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Church &amp; Minister’s Tax Conference</span></strong></p>
<p><strong>Date</strong>: August 14, 2010      <strong>Time:</strong> 10:00 a.m.</p>
<p><strong>Place:</strong> Celebration Church of God</p>
<p>4429 Buck Mountain Rd</p>
<p>Roanoke VA 24018</p>
<p><strong>Speaker:</strong> Rev Phillip Gervase E.A. (Tax Accountant and Enrolled Agent)</p>
<p><strong>Topic:</strong></p>
<p>Responsibilities of churches with federal taxes, how to handle minister’s compensation, housing allowance, and how to report minister’s compensation and housing both for the church and minister.</p>
<p><strong>Price:</strong> $35.00 per person</p>
<p>Target Group: Ministers, Treasurers, their accountants, and Board Members</p>
<p><strong>Reasons:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Most churches report compensation incorrectly.</li>
<li>When churches fail to file appropriate forms with IRS, they pay large penalties and interest.</li>
<li>Many ministers fail to get all the deductions that apply to them and also report things that are not deductable.</li>
<li>This conference helps everyone to know what is deductible and where to put the deductions on the tax forms.  Since ministerial taxes are so different from regular taxes, accountants may not know what or how to report this compensation.</li>
<li>This is for accountants, ministers, and churches of all denominations.</li>
<li>Everyone can benefit from this conference.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Questions:</strong> <a href="mailto:gervaseministries@hotmail.com">gervaseministries@hotmail.com</a> or 540-309-6531</p>
<p><strong>Registration Due Date:</strong> July 15<sup>th</sup> 2010</p>
<p><strong>Registration Form obtained at</strong>: <a href="http://gervaseministries.org/TaxConference.aspx">http://gervaseministries.org/TaxConference.aspx</a></p>
