Upcoming 2010-11 Stewardship Workshops

Stewardship Revisioning (held at LSTC)
Led by Ed Kruse, Director for Stewardship, ELCA
Saturday, Oct. 16, 2010
9 am-2 pm

What's new? What are the possibilities? This workshop will look at ways that we can re-vision stewardship in our churches. Participants will look at the religious and cultural assumptions and practices around stewardship and together re-vision new approaches for congregations.

As director for stewardship for the ELCA, Ed Kruse is dedicated to equipping steward leaders with the perspectives, practices and skills that they can use in congregations to enable ministry to become more sustainable and funded out of generous hearts.
