Stewardship is ...
Using the gifts that God gives you to do the work God calls you to do…
Our Call as Faithful Christians
As Christians, we believe part of our response
to God’s love is to support the
mission and ministry of the Church.
Essential Elements
• Tell our story
• Respond to the vision
• Demonstrate funds are safe
Types of Gifts • Ordinary – Annual Giving Funds contributed toward on-going daily ministry and operation of a congregation.
• Extra-Ordinary – Capital Campaign Special funds raised for a specific need, typically for new or enhanced facilities.
• Ultimate – Planned Giving Gifts to support the future ministry and security of a church and its mission.
The Minister of the Congregation is directed to instruct the people, from time to time, about the duty of Christian parents to make prudent provision for the well-being of their families, and of all persons to make wills, while they are in health, arranging for the disposal of their temporal goods, not neglecting, if they are able, to leave bequests for religious and charitable uses. (BCP pg. 445)
