Are you looking for an impactful stewardship program that's theologically-grounded and easy to implement?
In partnership with the Stewardship Leaders Program at Luther Seminary, we are excited to offer Stewardship in a Box, a resource designed to give you everything you need to guide your community through a meaningful conversation about faith and finances.
Using tried and true methods from fundraising experts and stewardship leaders, this resource will help congregations from the beginning to the end of a stewardship campaign. This is not an “all or nothing” resource, that everyone follows exactly and word for word. It is meant to be more of a “choose your own adventure,” setting each congregation up for stewardship success in the way that fits their context best.
Theme
Our inaugural Stewardship in a Box theme is “You Have Heard it Said…”
This worship and spiritual practice series will help people of faith unpack some of what they have heard about money (and generosity), reflect on how God might be calling them to use all of their money (not just the portion they give away), and discern how people of all ages might participate in God’s mission in their congregation through financial generosity.
What’s Included?
A ready-made resource for congregations of every size, Stewardship in a Box will include:
