SUMMARY:Getting Started in Stewardship
DESCRIPTION:Getting Started in Stewardship\nTuesday\, February 21 – 1 p.m. EST\nPresented on Zoom \nJoin United Church people from across the country to learn some stewardship first principles.\nStart with an on-line 2-hour course that answers questions like: What is stewardship all about anyway? Isn’t stewardship just a churchy word for fundraising? Why do people give\, and why would they give to our church? What can we do to encourage greater generosity? \nThe practical assignments that follow will help you reflect on giving and generosity as part of your faith\, gather and interpret some of the giving data from your community of faith\, and build a stewardship team in order to start making stewardship a priority in your community of faith. \nCompletion of this course is a great first step before participating in Stewardship Best Practices\, which will be offered next in March 2023. \nRegistration link – https://forms.office.com/r/idCxNLcBeg \nAny questions?
