Stewardship is a ministry in the Episcopal Church that
supports the mission and ministry of the entire church. Though often
thought of as the annual fund raising typically done in the fall each
year, good stewardship actually reaches into every aspect of everything
done every day in every parish. The question is, how can the diocese
help its parishes to actually become good stewards in all the different
ways out there?
This exciting and somewhat daunting task is the focus of the Diocesan Stewardship Department. Reinvigorated by the leadership of Bishop Hollerith and the Executive Committee, this group re-formed itself in 2016, with Bob Motley and Mike McGraw serving as co-chairs. To learn what was needed, parishes were surveyed on stewardship issues, and a series of informal gatherings took place around the diocese. These results now guide us in our work for 2017-18. To these two dedicated individuals - thank you for all you have done and accomplished!
The Stewardship Department is pleased to announce new co-chairs:
Mr. Al Louer (Bruton Parish, Williamsburg)
757-253-1209, cnwry@verizon.net
Mrs. Elise Balcom (Eastern Shore Chapel, Virginia Beach)
757-404-2451, emblaw@aol.com
We are looking for new members to join us beginning in September, 2017. If you or anyone you know is interested in joining this dynamic group, please have that person contact one the co-chairs!
