Peggy Counce Nace,
Financial Secretary
Peggy has over 25 years
experience working in United
Methodist Church offices in the
Memphis Conference. She has had
the privilege of serving NSUMC
for 11 years in the business
office. She views her position
as a ministry to the church and
the duties of financial
organization as a spiritual
gift. Peggy receives all
contributions to the church and
posts all the gifts and mails
the statements quarterly.
She disburses all money for
payables and tracks such back to
the budget line items or the
fund accounts. She also prepares
the payroll for all departments
on campus and also prepares all
quarterly and annual reports for
the IRS. We are blessed at NS to
have a very active Finance
Committee who have set strict
guide lines for receiving and
disbursing of church monies.
Peggy also serves as Membership
Secretary for NS. She accurately
keeps the church roll updated
and writes other churches for
membership transfers; prepare
our transfers and prepare
District and Conference reports
concerning membership. In
addition to keeping the paper
roll, as dictated by the
Discipline, she has updated the
church roll on computer. Annual
membership audits are much less
time consuming with accurate
computer records.
Peggy is married to Larry Nace,
whom she met while they were
students at Lambuth U. Yes, at
one time she could jump and
flip, when she was Lambuth
cheerleader. Now, Peggy just
sits and watches! Larry is a
retired Air Force officer. They
enjoyed his active duty years,
making twenty-one moves. They
enjoyed each place they have
lived and made good friends in
all of them. Peggy and Larry
have one daughter, two sons,
three grandsons, and two
granddaughters. She has been
blessed with a lot of good
times, but being a grandmother
is the greatest time yet!
