Sign up for Regular Giving!
The wise church built its ministry on the rock of regular giving. We should all be making this a priority moving forward into 2021, so joining PGS will be a good way to begin, especially as our congregations are not returning fully to church. More information can be found here or contact Christine or Liz.

CMD Training "The World in which we Give: Teaching and Preaching on Generosity "
We would like to encourage all clergy to come to the CMD training on Tues, Oct 13th 9.30-12.30. If this is not you please encourage clergy from your parish to attend. To book a place please click HERE
We have some fantastic engaging speakers lined up: Revd Steve Pierce, the Learning and Stewardship Director at Liverpool Diocese, Sammi Tooze, Giving advisor from York Diocese, and Helen Simpkiss, Regional Giving advisor from the National giving team. The following gives you an idea of what their sessions will cover:
Steve Pierce: Stewardship Sunday? Let’s get a guest preacher! But our annual giving sermon, if we have one, is up against maybe 5,000 consumer ads every day. This session will explore a little of the context of our stewardship preaching and some biblical themes and understands preaching as one of the ‘sacralising frames’ that form our personal and shared discipleship in response to the generosity of God.
Sammi Tooze: Through a series of top tips, Sammi will be exploring the way that we communicate about generosity. The session will look at the way that we use language to talk about giving, how that shapes our message, and how that message is then interpreted. We will also explore worship as a teaching tool, culture through attitudes and practice, and teaching about the joy of giving.
Helen Simpkiss: An overview of the National Giving Strategy and the Building a Generous Church Model, which sets out the key aspects of improving a church’s giving practice and generous culture. I’ll talk through each of the building blocks briefly and then some practical things that clergy can engage with.
