Parochial Report Addition - Sharing Our Stories

Pages:

By: 
Michael Francaviglia, Director of Administration

For the most part, the Parochial Report gathers data. We also want to be able to gather stories about mission and transformation.

Churches are invited to provide up to three stories of mission and transformation experienced in their congregations last year. Describe what was done (mission) and what happened (transformation). The descriptions can be for an individual, the congregation, or the involvement with the local community. Text should be limited to 250 words per story.

Deadline for Congregational Pledges for 2014

Monday, December 2, 2013

Letters regarding congregational pledges to the diocese for 2014 have been mailed to all clergy, wardens and treasurers of each congregation. In the letter – which is signed by Bishop Beckwith, the CFO, President of the Standing Committee, and Vice President of Diocesan Council – congregations are invited to “reflect on the work of the Diocese just as you consider all you do” at each church in the diocese. “As a diocese, we grow stronger as we work together. As we Dare to Be Disciples of Christ, we have faith that God will guide us to a new and better place as each of our congregations and our Diocese are faithful stewards of what God has entrusted to us. It is our need to give that forms the foundation of our Christian lives, and strengthens us and helps us to grow.”
