Stewardship is more than a fall campaign, a season, or a conversation about giving. Rooted in gratitude for all God has entrusted to us, it’s about helping people recognize and use their time, talents, and resources to take part more fully in God’s mission, in your local church and beyond.
Join ACST for a special webinar for local churches across The United Methodist Church, offered in partnership with GCFA. In this free webinar, discover practical ways to make stewardship a meaningful part of congregational life throughout the year. We’ll explore how to connect stewardship to your church’s mission, inspire greater participation, communicate impact, and create opportunities for people to put their gifts into action.
You’ll learn how to:
- Move beyond a seasonal approach to stewardship
- Engage members in faithful stewardship through their prayers, presence, gifts, service, and witness
- Connect stewardship opportunities to your church’s mission and ministry impact, from your community to the wider connection
- Communicate about stewardship in ways that inspire joyful participation
- Make the most of the Christian year, from Advent to Pentecost, without limiting stewardship to the fall campaign
- Create a practical year-round stewardship rhythm with your pastor, church council, and finance or stewardship team
You’ll also see Realm in action, including how it helps local churches bring people, giving, finances, and communication together in one place.
Plus, you’ll receive a free Church Stewardship Kit, filled with practical tools and resources to help you put what you learn into action.
Whether you’re preparing for your fall stewardship campaign or Commitment Sunday, or looking to strengthen your approach throughout the year, you’ll leave with ideas and resources you can start using right away.
