Chat GPT Team Members

If you are part of our RMI FAMILY then you can take part in our ChatGPT Team—blessing ☝️ you can use our nonprofit discount.

For example, co-authors and others on the NRP book team who use chatGPT, RMI pays for the whole year to give YOU a $5 a month discount per person, SAVING YOU $60 a year while you can pay monthly by deducting it from your monthly invoice. 🤗 

Blessing 2️⃣ again, YOU don't have to pay for the full year; all you need to do is deduct $20 from your invoice each month to be able to use this and be part of our Erin Thiele's Workspace.

The third 3️⃣ benefit is that YOU have NO daily limit to use ChatGPT. This is perfect for co-authoring and for doing superscripts. 💖

Our team currently consists out of 6 members:
1) Erin
2) Erica
3) Adina
4) Anastasia
5) Janine
6) Yvonne

There are even more blessings coming, if you are currently co-authoring a book with Erin, she mentioned offering a “Thiele Deal”, which means instead of paying $20 a month, you will pay half and she’ll pay half, you’ll deduct only $10. 🥳

MOM Websites - My Own Ministry

Starting in October 2025, every Graduate will have their own ministry on a WIX website where they can share their gifts and advertise their services.

This is an exciting opportunity for IPMs (International Property Managers) to connect with Graduates and hire them for the support they need!

For example, if you need help with bookkeeping, you can hire Yvonne and Adina. If your websites need a refresh or cleanup, you can hire Yvonne and Owen. And if you’re looking for beautiful covers, eye-catching logos, or professional audio work, Anastasia and Adina have you covered.

These are only a few examples — we have many other Graduates with amazing anointings that you can find by visiting their Wix websites. You can easily find each Graduate’s website by visiting their BIO page—take a moment to explore their sites and see how they can bless your ministry!

Ministry Team Member Invoices

To help us focus on what is important, He showed us to use Fridays for finances. This means all invoices will be paid on the first Friday of each month.

If the month starts on a Friday, we will wait and pay on the next Friday. This gives us time to first pay our Tithes and Offerings, to put Him first.

Please note:
If there is an overpayment on an invoice, it must be paid back, and a fine will be added.

Make sure your invoice amounts are correct. If this is difficult for you, ask God to show you someone who can help check your numbers.

Motivation (Accountability)

November 7, 2025: “It is required of stewards that they be found faithful.”

We need to take good care of what we’re responsible for. To stay consistent and accountable, we should live by the same principles we expect from others. (Like Erin says in W@H, “say what you mean, mean what you say.)

Easy invoices this month. Last month's invoice with $100 bonus for TNT. 

Who is My Sister?

Treasurer and Bookkeeper
⭐️ Exciting News! ⭐️

We’re making some changes that will allow us to serve you even better! As RMI transitions to QuickBooks and Salesforce, our goal is to become more effective, more efficient, and ultimately free up more time to focus on helping you and your ministry thrive.

While these services will no longer be offered directly through RMI, after Erin asked me to personally set up and handle her QuickBooks Soloprenuer, she has such a heart for this vision that she’s helping launch my family’s QuickBooks service. And here’s the best part—💝 for the first five people who sign up, Erin will personally cover the $20 QuickBooks app fee and my hourly service fee!

But that’s not all—I also hope to be teaching University-level courses on RMIOU so you can confidently learn to do this yourself. QuickBooks has its own training, but my RMIOU courses will be created especially for you, based on exactly what I’ve already been doing—making it practical, simple, and personalized for your family or ministry.

Don’t miss this opportunity to get hands-on support and training that empowers you to manage things with confidence!

Certificate of Good Standing

A Certificate of Good Standing is an official document you can get from your state government that proves your business is legally registered, up to date on fees and reports, and allowed to operate in that state. In the U.S., businesses often need it when opening bank accounts, applying for loans, registering in another state, or working with investors. It basically says, “This business is active and in compliance with the state’s rules.”

Our Treasurer/Bookkeeper renews this annually before 31 August. It can be renewed as early as May/June.

Charter No. N00066350

Certificate Doing Business As (DBA) Fictitious Name

As a 501 3(C) nonprofit organization our legal name is Restore Ministries INC, but our DBA is registered “Restore Ministries International”

This is renewed every 5 years and ours are coming up for renewal in 1/15/2027

A fictitious name (also known as a DBA, “Doing Business As,” or trade name) is a name a business uses that is different from its official legal name. In the U.S., businesses often register a fictitious name if they want to operate under a brand name without forming a new company. For example, if “Johnson Enterprises, LLC” wants to run a bakery called “Sweet Sunrise Bakery,” it would register “Sweet Sunrise Bakery” as its fictitious name. This makes the name official for business use, allows things like bank accounts and contracts under that name, but doesn’t give ownership rights like a trademark does.

🤑 RMI MONTHLY FINANCES STEPS

These steps are done every 1st Friday of the month in order to close of our previous month's finances.

  • Bookkeeper will also download NEW Donortools Sheet and if there are any PTG and ESP donations, add it to the bottom of their DT Sheet. 
  • Bookkeeper adds a message in the IPM6 Google Chat group that the Donortools spreadsheets are ready. 
  • Download Wise Statement

    Depending on what currency came into Wise, will determine which statements to download.

    Currently, we have NZD and USD so both those statements should be downloaded and named correctly and uploaded to the folder:
    Wise Statements 2024 Folder

    For now we do not have access to transfer the tithes and offerings from Wise, so we do it from designated Paypal accounts. You will be able to see this in the next step. 
  • Erin will download the BOA Statements and let the Treasurer know it’s been done
  • The Treasurer will convert the PDF statement to Google Worksheet and work and add the income from Wise as well, and work out the total income from Zelle and Checks that were deposited. 
  • Once this is done, go to the RMI Financial Team Google Chat Group and let everyone know that their statements are ready to work out the Tithe and Offering for their ministry. 
Each LMF or if they designated someone to do it on their behalf will now work out their Tithe and offering that needs to be transferred to BOA:

  • RMI Paypal (Bookkeeper)

    Open the RMI Paypal statement and at the total income, add a tag with the following information:
    Tithe:
    Offering:
    Total:

    Tag the Treasurer.
    The Treasurer will come in behind, make sure the TAO (Tithe and offering) were worked out correctly, and then transfer the money to BOA with a message that will tag Erin:

    “Total” transferred to “last 4 digits of the account number it was transferred to” with the date it was done.
  • Paypal EW (Bookkeeper)

    Open Paypal Statement for EW, but here we will also transfer TAO that came in through Wise so it will look a little different:

    The Tag to the Treasurer will look like this:

    Total Income from Paypal + Total Income from Wise = Total income for EW

    Tithe:
    Offering:

    Total to be paid:

    Remember that if the money comes into Wise as NZD, you will first need to convert it and then work on the converted amount. You can also show this in your tag for example:
    100 NZD = 60.97 USD
  • Paypal NRP

    Open Paypal Statement for EB, but here we will also transfer TAO that came in through Wise so it will look a little different:

    The Tag to the Treasurer will look like this:

    Total Income from EB + Total Income from Wise = Total income for NRPH
    Tithe:
    Offering:

    Total to be paid:

    Tag the Treasurer

  • Paypal PTG (PTG IPM)

    Open Paypal Statement for PTG, but here we will also transfer TAO that came in through the Brazil account:

    The Tag to the Treasurer will look like this:

    Total Income from Paypal + Total Income from Brazil = Total income for PTG

    Tithe:
    Offering:

    Total to be paid:

    Tag the Treasurer

    IMPORTANT for PTG: The money for TAO needs to be transferred from Brazil account to PTG
    Paypal and then transferred to BOA.

    NB: In all cases of working out TAO, please round off the numbers, don’t use cents, but also round of to the nearest $50 to make it easier. 
  • Paypal ESP (ESP IPM)

    Open the RMI Paypal statement and at the total income, add a tag with the following information:
    Tithe:
    Offering:
    Total:

    There will be NO transfer yet. The BOA (Bank of America) Statements need to be available    
    because there is money coming in from Zelle that comes through BOA.

    Once the BOA Statements are downloaded and the income from Zelle for the Spanish determined,
    the following calculations need to be done in the ESP 2024 DT: Source Spreadsheet Donation:

    Total TAO for Spanish:
    - Total amount from Zelle - Total amount from Stripe
    = Amount to be transferred to BOA

    If the amount is positive, it gets transferred to BOA
    If the amount is negative, we wait for the 15th to see how much money is in Paypal for ESP.

    If it is not enough to pay the invoices, more or less $5000, the amount worked out, is then  
    transferred to the ESP Paypal.

    NB: In all cases of working out TAO, please round off the numbers, don’t use cents, but also round
    of to the nearest $50 to make it easier. 
  • Once the Treasurer was tagged in all the Paypal Statements, the Treasurer will then come in and transfer the money to BOA tagging Erin with the message: 


“Total” transferred to “last 4 digits of the account number it was transferred to” with the date it was
Done.

  • Paypal RMI
  • Paypal EW
  • Paypal ESP
  • Paypal PTG
  • Paypal NRPH
  • Work out the amount for the tithe and offering that needs to be transferred between BOA Accounts.

    It needs to be an equal amount in both accounts.

    Leave a message in Bank Balances Telegram for Erin with what the amount is and where to transfer it.

    How to work this out:

    Calculate all tithes and offerings paid to 6693
    Calculate all tithes and offerings paid to 3213

    Get the balance of what needs to be transferred. Usually from 6693 to 3213 but it may differ

    RMI is in 6693
    PTG is in 6693
    ESP is in 6693
    BOA Deposits in 6693

    EW in 3213
    NRP in 3213
  • Update the Monthly Net-Worth for all RMI Accounts and add to the Monthly Google Chat for Erin. 
  • LMF IC PTG pays invoices. Paid from Wise
     
  • LMF IC Treasurer pays RMI and EW invoices. Paid from:

Paypal RMI
Paypal EW

If anyone is paid through another platform that is not Paypal, for example, Wise, then the money needs to be transferred from the correct Paypal account to the BOA 6693 where it was paid from. 

Record Expenses

  • Tag both Erin and Yvonne so they can both be paid.
  • Make a video for Erin explaining the monthly finances and add it to F2 Treasurer Telegram. This will close out the monthly finances for the previous month.
