The Foundation is set to host its second Lunch and Learn, a series of events that welcomes pastors into the Foundation office for lunch and a learning event that will be wrapped up within an hour.  It is an excellent opportunity to gain knowledge and grow friendships. 

January's event will be held on Thursday, January 23, and will begin at noon with lunch. The topic of this month's event is 'Creating an Annual Stewardship Plan' and will provide an opportunity for you to walk out with a stewardship plan in hand. 

There are authors, such as Christopher and Reeves, who suggest that rather than doing a specific stewards push, that pastors need to look at how to provide biblical education about stewardship in worship, newsletters, and in other ways on a monthly, and even weekly basis. To create a plan this rigorous on your own may seem daunting at best. Let the Foundation lighten your load by supporting you as you work through this process in a place free of distraction and full of support and ideas from like-minded people. Rev. Matt Fowler, Foundation Director of Stewardship, will offer a basic outline for guidance as you work through your stewardship plan. The goal is to leave the Foundation with God's guidance in your head and heart, and with a plan in hand for the entire year.  

If you would like to attend this session, please RSVP here so we can plan lunch accordingly.  If you are unable to attend this session, but would like resources from the Foundation to help you through this task, please RSVP and choose that selection on the form.  We are thankful for your interest and participation in this event and its resources.
