Business Manager
Karen Gates came to us in June 2008 from Henderson, Hutcherson & McCullough CPA firm. She had been outsourced to us for about six months on a limited basis. With 30 years of accounting experience, we felt Karen met the needs of FCUMC and hired her full-time. Karen’s responsibilities include tracking all contributions received by the church, issuing all vendor checks, payroll and monthly financial statements. Karen is the proud mother of two boys, Tyler and Matt and resides in Ringgold, GA.
Favorite Bible Verse: Philippians 4:13, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.”
Hobbies: Spending time with family and friends, gardening, cooking, and reading.
