Healthy churches
Find a healthy church and you will find a church that has embraced the concept of stewardship.
Stewardship is so much more than an annual campaign, or a desperate appeal for funds. While every church needs to make specific appeals and run intentional programmes at certain times, many churches are recognising the value of having a more ‘ongoing’ approach to stewardship.
There are many ways of to achieve this. The Stewardship Officer is available to discuss with individual clergy or PCCs:
- Developing teaching and preaching programmes
- Becoming ‘money-positive’
- Thinking ‘long-term’
- Understanding the changing role of stipendiary clergy
- Mission Partnerships and their possibilities
- Using the whole range of diocesan resources available.
