Relational Stewardship Workshop

This series will be led by Emergent Mission, and will introduce an expansive approach for realizing your missional and financial stewardship goals. Relational Stewardship moves beyond the traditional mindset and practice of stewardship as a series of transactional requests for money to deeper more meaningful experiences of giving that expand your community’s understanding of stewardship as a series of life enriching and transformational conversations.

Workshop #1 - Cultivating an Appreciation and Enthusiasm for Giving

For many parishes the mindset and practice of stewardship has long been associated with funding annual operating expenses, the occasional capital campaign, enriching the endowment, or funding a special project. This workshop will introduce an interpersonal approach to stewardship that integrates the practical need for funding with your missional call to nurture deeper, more meaningful and transformational relationships with parishioners, neighbors and other supporters in ways that inspire an appreciation and enthusiasm for participating in your mission through giving - financially, participation in ministry, and the sharing of God-given gifts.

Workshop #2 - Implementing Relational Stewardship in Your Parish

As an Episcopal faith community your ability to establish meaningful value-added relationships with parishioners, neighbors, and other supporters is essential to achieving your mission and financial stewardship goals. Grounded in the richness of Episcopal identity and theology, this workshop will guide participants through the practical steps for implementing a relational stewardship strategy in their parish that can serve a variety of missional and funding needs including congregational vitality, ministry development, annual appeals, capital campaigns and planned giving. Resources will be made available to each parish participant.
