STEWARDSHIP

ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN 2022:

Wrote Stewardship article for Eastminster Today magazine October Issue. Received officers’ pledges at their monthly meeting in October.

Dedication Sunday was October 30.

Included pledge link in weekly EPC email distribution.

Mailed hand-written thank-you notes to members of the church who pledged to give and serve.

Emailed two Stewardship Pledge reminders with pledge link attached.

Mailed follow-up letters in December to members who had not yet pledged, and conducted follow-up phone banks on December 15.

GOALS FOR 2023:

Ask officers to call and invite members to Dedication Sunday and the congregational meal in October of 2023.

Continue to individualize pledge letters to include contribution information. Increase the number of pledges received by 5% over the previous year. Encourage volunteers or “at large” members to join the Stewardship Committee.

Ensure that each ministry is accountable for contacting every person who has volunteered for that ministry, and for placing him/her in an appropriate volunteer position.

Continue to recruit members and prior Stewardship Committee members to write devotionals.
