Our Office Provides:
Consultation:
On-site consultation
with a representative of the Parish Stewardship Office to help
customize a parish plan for your stewardship effort or facilitate any
number of workshop topics for staff, committees and/or ministry
groups.
Formation:
Each year parish leaders
have an opportunity to attend and participate in new formational
experiences. These opportunities range from presentations by national
known speakers to workshops offering practical tools and tips to the
35-hour PFI Leadership Course to spiritual reflection days and
mini-retreats. We can even provide something specific to your parish.
Resources:
Current stewardship
articles, books and other resources are provided throughout the year
to aid your parish in building its own stewardship library.
Leadership Support Gatherings:
Parish stewardship
leaders from around the area gather every other month in several
locations around the diocese to pray, share ideas and support each
other. This is also a time when news and current resources are
distributed.
Communications:
Our Bi-Weekly Faxes
(weekly during renewal periods), Quarterly Newsletter and
Special Issues along with our Web Site keep you informed on
current stewardship news, announcements and provide valuable resources
and planning tools.
Computer Training and Support:
Computer support for
tasks that directly relate to the successful implementation of the
parish’s Stewardship effort.
Renewal Materials:
For each renewal (Time
and Talent and Financial) parishioner materials focus on the
spirituality and practicality of Stewardship in light of one of five
stewardship themes. Materials are available in both camera ready and
customizable formats for you to print or have printed and distribute
to all in your parish. (Most materials are also available in Spanish.)
