The Division of Stewardship is offering grants to assist local churches in stewardship development. In the past three years, we have assisted 36 local churches. These grants come in two forms.

The first is a grant a church may apply for which would allow them to either purchase materials or bring in a resource person to assist in stewardship development. Churches may apply for an amount up to $300 for this grant.

The second grant allows churches to bring in a resource leader which is assigned to them by the Division of Stewardship for the purpose of leading their church in Herb Miller's Consecration Sunday Program. The grant for this project pays the resource leader for his or her time and efforts. The remaining amounts to do this program come from the local church itself. The largest amount would include the cost of a catered meal for the congregation on Consecration Sunday. The amount awarded to churches which are approved is $350.

Deadlines for Application: April 1 & September 1
