Hendrickson to Serve as NPUC Undertreasurer

By Heidi Baumgartner, November 18, 2025

The North Pacific Union finance team has a new team member, Kody Hendrickson, who will be serving as undertreasurer.

NPUC’s executive committee received a recommendation for his name at a regularly scheduled meeting on Nov. 12, 2025. The committee voted to extend the invitation, and Hendrickson accepted. He will start at NPUC in the new year.

“Hendrickson brings a breadth of knowledge to this role, and I look forward to working together to continue growing and strengthening our team,” said Jeff Fogelquist, NPUC chief financial officer.

Hendrickson fills this opening after the departure of Brent Plubell, previous NPUC undertreasurer, who is now part of the North American Division treasury team.

NPUC’s undertreasurer is responsible for overseeing all accounting functions to produce timely reports, monitor investment activities and provide support to local conferences.

This role serves as the “union point person” for conference-level financial team applications. The undertreasurer also serves as the office and facility manager.

Hendrickson is no stranger to the Pacific Northwest with deep roots in Battle Ground, Washington. He has served as an associate treasurer for seven years and as association treasurer for three years for Oregon Conference.

Through his career, he has developed strong nonprofit financial leadership skills, demonstrated resourcefulness and proactively found ways to modernize, automate or improve business processes. He has embraced emerging business needs and adapted to changing organizational goals while maintaining a big picture perspective.

“From my first days in Oregon supporting our local treasurers to managing our corporate entities, God has shaped my path and skills to the mission in ways I could never have foreseen,” Hendrickson said. “I look forward to providing not only financial insight for the union, but also my passion for how we can grow the church in this chaotic world.” 

He is a graduate of Walla Walla University, where he obtained a bachelor’s degree in business administration. He earned a Master of Business Administration degree with an emphasis in finance from Western Governors University. Recently, he completed trust certification to provide additional support to planned giving and trust services management.

Hendrickson and his wife, Stephanie, spend their free time exercising for better health, investing in their young nephews and building impressive LEGO sets.

In the spirit of transparency, NPUC wants to acknowledge that Hendrickson is related to a member of the education team.

The NPUC finance team includes Fogelquist, CFO; Hendrickson, undertreasurer; Anne Vu, associate treasurer; and Penny Ford, account clerk. The NPUC association team, who works in parallel with the finance team, includes Jay Graham, association treasurer; Jim Brown, planned giving and trust services director; and Debbie Morauske, association assistant.

"We look forward to improving the collaboration between our organizations within NPUC by supporting and nurturing efficient and effective stewardship of the resources we have been blessed with," Fogelquist said.
