A Wichita church being investigated by the Internal Revenue Service for a possible violation of its tax-exempt status could soon be audited.
The IRS notified the church in a letter that it may need to examine the financial and accounting records of Spirit One Christian Center, the church's pastor said Thursday. The IRS is trying to determine whether the church violated rules against political campaign activity that tax-exempt organizations must follow.
In the letter, the IRS told Pastor Mark Holick that the church could meet with IRS officials to "try to resolve our concerns and alleviate the need for further action." The meeting also could "help define the issues and limit the scope of any examination," the letter said.
Holick said an attorney for the church will meet with the IRS; the date has not been set.
