2024 Fall Stewardship Training

We are excited to introduce Project Resource to you as Bishop Kym Lucas has partnered with the College for Bishops to bring Project Resource to our diocese for five consecutive Sundays, September 8 through October 6, Online via Zoom; 3:00 to 5:00 pm.

Project Resource teaches culture and systems change around financial development in the worldwide Episcopal Church. Project Resource provides teaching, focus, and adaptable resources to equip clergy and lay leaders to develop their year-round annual stewardship campaigns and to plan, ask for, and receive major gifts.

Project Resource:

  • helps church teams to gather the best resources to transform all areas of stewardship and explore internal narratives of money while addressing societal shifts, organizational change, and leadership challenges.
  • assists teams in interpreting the training curriculum, session by session, relative to their cultural and regional context.
  • empowers participants to leave the conference with a working plan and measurable objectives tailored specifically for their own congregation.

Church Teams:
Project Resource training equips stewardship teams to plan and develop year-round stewardship ministries that can be replicated and adapted for years to come. Churches that have gotten the most out of Project Resource have been intentional about including their clergy, stewardship committee members, staff, and other committed lay leaders.
