Inviting Generosity Beyond the Sunday Offering
Is your church ready to receive gifts that won’t necessarily come through the offering plate? Do you have a strategy in place for gifts that might take the form of a bequest, endowment, memorial gifts, or gifts of property, stocks, or valuable collectibles? If you were approached by someone offering a larger gift, would you know how to respond? Join Rev. Ken Sloane, Director, Stewardship & Generosity, as he suggests ways you can improve your church's financial vision to see "beyond the Sunday offering."
Key takeaways from the webinar included the importance of having a planned giving program, strong communications and a breakdown of the three pockets people give from. Sloane stressed the importance of having a year-long stewardship strategy that utilizes income, assets and legacy giving. He provided many resources to make it easy for any church to invite generosity beyond the Sunday offering.
