     Advent of Generosity: Inviting giving and participation during Advent and Christmas with Vicki Nelson, Stewardship Support

Vicki Nelson Stewardship Animator Chinook Winds Region

December tends to be a very busy month in the life of the church. It is also a busy month for individualsā€”there is extra baking, shopping for family and friends, Christmas parties, and more. Most charities save their biggest appeals for this ā€œgiving seasonā€. Does your community of faith talk about generosity during Advent?  Many people want an invitation to give. This can be a time to invite generosity or deeper participation. And itā€™s an opportunity to tell visitors about your ministry, and invite their support.  

This 60-minute session will talk about different ways that church leaders can bring conversations of stewardship into Advent, Christmas Eve, and beyond. Letā€™s help make this Advent the beginning of a church year full of deeper generosity. Register for Zoom link HERE. This session will also be recorded and available to you afterwards
