Stewardship Ministry Development
Our stewardship ministry services are rooted in the biblical truth that a loving God is the source of all that we have - at its foundation, stewardship is discipleship. We are committed to helping your congregation deepen its culture of generosity by focusing on the joy of giving, the future of ministry and the excitement of mission.
Our approach engages congregations by helping to lay the foundations needed to bring lasting change and transformation to both individuals and the larger faith community. Kairos' Stewardship Ministry Development implements the following phases:
Mission and Ministry Reflection
Clearly focused and articulated vision for mission and ministry are essential for doing meaningful stewardship development. This first phase leads congregational leaders in a time of reflection and discernment of current ministry, identifies a hopeful vision of the future and lays the foundation for moving forward.
Leadership and Organizational Development
Thinking about stewardship in new ways means identifying leaders who are willing to embrace that challenge and engage in a comprehensive assessment of current stewardship ministry practices. This part of the work helps to develop leaders and create an organizational structure that will drive the congregation's stewardship ministry into the future.
Stewardship Ministry Planning
With the right leadership in place, it is important to assess current practices and identify specific opportunities for deepening your congregation's culture of generosity and discipleship. During this phase, a customized plan will be developed for implementing new and renewed stewardship practices, including a comprehensive communication strategy for inviting people into the story of what God is doing in and through your congregation.
Implementation and Ongoing Consultation
Plans are only as good as the actions they inspire. Kairos will guide the process of implementing this new vision of stewardship into the life of the congregation. Special focus will be given to how your congregation celebrates its ministry, invites people to participate, offers encouragement and thanks and consistently connects giving to spiritual growth.
