A.V.Pchelintsev, I.V. Zagrebina Office Administration in the Religious Organizations. Handbook. Moscow: “Jurisprudentsiya” publishing house, 2010. – 144 pages.

This office administration handbook has been developed by the SCLJ specifically for religious organizations and has become the first publication of its kind in Russia.

Every religious organization often conducts worship activities along with a number of charitable, educational and production ones. Inevitably, this leads to an involvement in relations and correspondence with various governmental and municipal bodies as well as commercial and social organizations.

This handbook has been developed with the specifics of religious organizations’ activities in mind and addresses a wide range of questions that may arise at different stages of paperwork. The appendix of the handbook contains templates of various official documents, duty regulations, agreements, powers of attorney and other reference information.

Practical advice contained in the handbook can be helpful to leaders of religious organizations, lawyers, administrators, accountants, clerks and secretaries. The handbook is also recommended to teaching staff and students of religious educational institutions.
