WHY ARE WE HERE • Financial Cash flow crisis in the Diocese • Synod asked the diocese to begin a stewardship development process • We partnered with the National Church’s “letting down the nets” program
WHY ARE WE HERE • Diocesan Feasibility Study was undertaken • The Study revealed a number of areas that parishes wanted support with • The Study revealed that VERY few parishes had a parish Vision
WHY ARE WE HERE • Education Committee of the Diocesan Stewardship Council set the Vision Process as the Foundation to developing our Stewardship Initiative • With Out Vision we will Perish
BUT IT IS MUCH MORE • PEOPLE • MINISTRY • THANKSGIVING • FAITHFULNESS
IT’S ABOUT FAITH • GIVING BACK TO GOD THAT WHICH HE HAS GIVEN TO US • TIME, TALENTS, MONEY • To achieve the Vision of the Church
