Developing a Year-Round Stewardship Strategy • April 2024 (Online Webinar)
In the past, many local churches have had no strategy around stewardship, or one that involved a single event – an annual fall pledge campaign. A campaign can be an important piece, but it is just one piece of what could (and should) be a larger stewardship strategy for your church. Join us as we explore how your church might begin to shape a year-round strategy to keep generosity before your people throughout the year!
