Rev. Belinda Sledge is the owner of S&V Financial Services, an accounting firm she founded in 2004 and named after her two children, Sierra and Victor. A native of Richmond, Virginia, she made her home in Greensboro, North Carolina, where she earned a B.S. degree in Accounting from North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University. Over the years, she has been recognized with awards for outstanding service in her profession and for her work in the community.
Rev. Sledge is a trained church consultant, conflict resolution leader, and ordained minister. She holds a Master of Divinity from Chicago Theological Seminary and has served churches, nonprofits, and businesses for more than 20 years. In December 2018, she was commissioned by the Southern Conference of the United Church of Christ as Minister for Financial Stewardship and Church Consultant—a role she continues today as Minister for Finance and Church Consulting. She led the first youth event of the Southern Conference in 2024.
Her pastoral ministry includes serving as Interim Pastor of her home church, Union Chapel United Church of Christ in Burlington, NC, from May 2024 to September 2025, as well as stepping into leadership as Interim Conference Minister during the sabbatical of Rev. Dr. Edward Davis in the past.
Rev. Sledge’s passion is teaching others how to be faithful stewards of what God has entrusted to them. She has dedicated her life to spreading financial knowledge and stewardship principles that empower churches, individuals, and business owners alike.
Beyond her professional and ministerial work, she spent 13 years as Executive Director of the Swann Middle School Drumline & Dance Team in Greensboro until the school’s renovation closure. She remains a strong advocate for children and youth. Her motto is her life’s mission: “All goals are attainable with the help of God and your efforts.”
In addition to her role at the Southern Conference of the United Church of Christ, Rev. Sledge is a respected voice across the wider UCC. She recently served as Interim Pastor of Union Chapel UCC in Burlington and frequently consults with churches on financial integrity, stewardship, and sustainable ministry. She is the founder of S&V Accounting Services, offering faith-informed accounting and consulting support to nonprofits, congregations, and entrepreneurs across North Carolina.
We look forward to welcoming Rev. Sledge to our Sanctuary and into the vibrant spiritual life of Holy Covenant. Come experience her powerful message and the movement of Spirit among us.
