Cultivating Generous Congregations

February 9, 2021 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

$150
Cultivating Generous Congregations Seminar
Webinar in 6 sessions Feb 9 – Apr 27
Stewardship in any season can be stressful for pastors. It can feel awkward, unspiritual. The Cultivating Generous Congregations Seminar for pastors and lay leaders offers an opportunity to explore faithful, practical, and tested ways for promoting generosity in our congregations. We will draw on current research, seek guidance from the wisdom of scripture, and discuss the best practices in church-based fundraising.This seminar will help pastors and leaders engage generosity as a spiritual practice, and will improve the “bottom line” of your congregation – mission and ministry. Six online sessions run on Tuesdays at 5:30-7:00 pm, from Feb. 9th through Apr. 27th, and will be taught by the Rev. Andrew Warner, Wisconsin Conference Director of Development and the Rev. Andy DeBraber, Generosity Officer of the national setting. Between class sessions, Andy and Andrew will provide materials to help you analyze the culture of your own congregation and learn how to create change. Invite at least one other person to achieve the most impact. By the end of the seminar, pastors and leaders will be equipped to lead effective fundraising and will have a strategy to guide success moving forward.

The CGC Seminar is $150 per participant. Register by January 31

The individual seminar dates are Feb. 9, Feb. 23, March 9, March 23, April 13, and April 27.
