Stewardship through Storytelling with Robyn Davis Sekula
April 20, 2023 – 10:30 am – 2:30 p.m.
Saint Mark Presbyterian Church, 10701 Old Georgetown Road, North Bethesda, MD 20852
hosted by the Stewardship Committee of NCP

Come prepared to talk about your church and the challenges of stewardship – but also be ready to find unexpected blessings that can help your congregation re-engage around stewardship. Expect to work in small groups and to spend some time writing and contemplating on your own.
We’ll show you how to find those stories, where and when to tell them, and how to set your next stewardship campaign up for success.

No Cost!  your unified giving at work! Lunch provided.
