Tithing Declaration Sign-Up Sheet Template
Tithing declaration season (many wards still call it tithing settlement) means every family needs a few minutes with the bishop between September 1st and December 15th. This template turns that schedule into a self-serve booking page: each time slot holds one family, and claimed times disappear from the list.
Share one link in the ward newsletter, Sunday programs, or the Relief Society and elders quorum group chats. Families pick a time that works, reschedule themselves with a private link, and the executive secretary never plays phone tag again.
Built for the full season

How to set up tithing declaration appointments
Pick the session dates
The template selects every remaining Sunday from September 1 through December 15. Remove Sundays the bishop is unavailable, then add any weeknight sessions your ward needs.
Slot the appointments
Ten minutes per family with a five-minute gap every few appointments keeps the evening on schedule even when one conversation runs long. This template's spacing follows that pattern.
Share through ward channels
Put the link in the ward newsletter, Sunday program QR code, and the Relief Society and elders quorum chats. Families book themselves, and the executive secretary retires from phone tag.
What to include on a tithing declaration sign up
The privacy setting
Turn on hidden names so the public page shows booked times as simply filled. Who meets with the bishop is nobody else's business, and the dashboard still shows you the full list.
Where and when to arrive
"Bishop's office, arrive five minutes early" in the description saves the clerk from redirecting families all evening.
A mix of times
Young families need early evening, working parents need Sunday afternoon. Spreading sessions across both fills the schedule faster than one marathon night.
The reschedule path
Every booking's confirmation includes a private edit link. One line in the description telling families to use it keeps the executive secretary out of the middle.
Frequently asked questions
When does tithing declaration season run?
Appointments happen between September 1st and December 15th, so every member can declare before the year closes. Setting the sheet up in late September gives families the full window and gives the bishopric an early read on how many sessions to hold.
How long should each appointment be?
Ten minutes per family is the working standard: enough for the declaration and a warm word, short enough to fit a ward's worth of families into a few sessions. The template adds a five-minute buffer after every few slots so the schedule survives the occasional longer visit.
Can the executive secretary manage the sheet?
Yes, and usually should. Whoever creates the sheet sees every booking on their dashboard, updated live, and can export the list for the bishopric. Families still book and reschedule themselves, so managing it means watching it fill rather than making calls.
Is it tithing settlement or tithing declaration?
Both names refer to the same annual meeting. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints officially renamed tithing settlement to tithing declaration, but many members still use the older name. This template works for your ward either way.
Can ward members see who booked each appointment?
Only if you want them to. Every sheet has a privacy setting that hides names on the public page, so a booked time simply shows as filled. You still see the full list on your dashboard and can export it for the bishopric.
How do families change their appointment time?
Every sign up includes a private edit link. A family can drop their time and claim an open one on their own, and the freed slot reopens instantly for everyone else.
