Benefits to The Sovereign Church Retirement Plan
Tax Savings
The Minister’s Housing Allowance is one of the greatest tax benefits available to ministers. As an ordained, licensed, or commissioned minister, you can receive a portion of your compensation as Housing Allowance. That portion is excluded from your gross income and therefore not subject to federal income tax. This represents substantial tax savings for you.
Further, when you retire as an ordained, licensed, or commissioned minister, a portion of your 403(b)(9) retirement plan distribution can be taken as Housing Allowance, providing additional tax savings in retirement. To retain the benefit upon retirement, do not transfer any of these funds to an IRA. This unique benefit enhances The Sovereign Church Retirement Plan.
Everyone Can Invest Well
The Sovereign Church Retirement Plan uses open architecture and a unique menu creation/selection process to create and maintain your investment menu. Investment selection is made easy. You have the option of choosing your investments or selecting a guided process. Your investment menu is reviewed quarterly by the Sovereign Church Retirement Plan Oversight Committee.

A Greater Vision of Retirement
For most people “retirement” is seen as a time during which you withdraw or cease from work. However, there is never a time in which we stop having value or influence in the lives of others. In fact, God has created us to minister to others for a lifetime.
The Sovereign Church Retirement Plan encourages and empowers you to redefine retirement where you can embrace your lifetime calling to love, serve, and minister to others. Maximize your impact and potential with a new vision of retirement.
One day your paychecks will stop,
but God’s plan for you continues.
