With less than a month to go before the next Msgr. McGread Stewardship Conference, now is your final chance to register for this once-in-a-lifetime event, where you will learn from expert pastors and lay leaders how you can transform your parish by developing stewardship as a way of life.
The McGread Stewardship Conference will be held Feb. 26-27 at the Diocese of Wichita’s Spiritual Life Center in Wichita, Kansas.
Now in its 10th year, the McGread Conference has inspired and educated thousands of priests, religious, and lay Catholics. The February conference once again will feature a lineup of dynamic speakers who will share their remarkable stories and give practical examples of how developing the spirituality of stewardship has made an indelible impact on the lives of parishioners and the life of the parish.
The conference is named for the late Msgr. Thomas McGread, who passed away in April 2013. Msgr. McGread has been called the “Father of Stewardship,” and he was instrumental in the drafting of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops’ pastoral letter, Stewardship: A Disciple’s Response. Conference attendees will hear the incredible story of how Msgr. McGread’s stewardship vision transformed his parish — St. Francis of Assisi in Wichita — and how his stewardship model has impacted other parishes across the country.
The conference is scheduled during the middle of the week so that all participants can arrive Tuesday evening and depart Thursday afternoon.
