Essential Leadership

An active Stewardship Committee is crucial, because strong leadership is a hallmark of a stewardship parish. Catholic Stewardship Consultants can give you guidance on how to start a committee or further develop your existing one.

Resources We Provide

Because we have worked with so many Stewardship Committees, we can show you how to form an effective committee that makes a difference in the parish. The guidance we provide includes:

• Showing you how to choose effective members and further train existing members
• Helping you focus on the spirituality of stewardship
• Training videos featuring Msgr. Thomas McGread
• Recommending literature to review and discuss
• Guiding members in organizing a ministry fair
• Working with them during the annual Stewardship Renewal
• Directing them in conducting effective ministry follow-up
• Showing them how to emphasize stewardship year-round

Training Beyond the Stewardship Committee

At various times during our engagement, we will meet with the pastor and parish leaders to conduct training or review progress. For instance, at the outset of our engagement, we can conduct a presentation for your staff to help them understand the stewardship way of life. We can also work with the Parish Council to solve issues presented by the parish survey, or to discuss ways to improve the Stewardship Renewal each year.
