2026 Parish Assessment Update

Changes to the format of The Episcopal Church’s Parochial Report form for 2024 have resulted in the need to gather additional financial information from parishes.

The Diocesan Finance Committee asks that you complete this online supplemental form to provide those details by July 2 so that 2026 assessments may be properly calculated.

Member of the Finance Committee and parishioner at St. George’s, York Harbor, Julie Littlefield, discusses the numbers used when assessing churches and necessary budget information this form is designed to collect with the Rev. Canon Mark Furlow in the video here.

The answers to questions 1-5 on the form are financial amounts used to define your parish’s “operating” income based on prior parochial reports. Find definitions of operating and non-operating funds here to help you calculate these amounts

Questions 7-9 are intended to assist the bishop’s staff and the Diocesan Council Finance Committee to better understand and resource your parish. Please respond to the best of your ability.

Please direct questions to Accounting Manager Sherri Quint or (207) 772-1953 Ext. 134.
