Workshop: Spirituality of Generosity

August 24, 2020 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

Jesus talked about money second only to the kingdom of God, yet many in the church today treat money as a non-spiritual topic.  We can theologically engage questions of money, wealth, and giving.  Teaching and preaching about generosity and the use of our financial resources can deepen the faith life of our congregations.  Gathering together with other pastors, this webinar will help you reclaim money-talk as a faith formation conversation with the members and friends of your congregation.

Registration to open after the October workshop is completed.

These seminars paid for by your OCWM contributions!

Facilitator, Andrew B. Warner, CFRE, serves as a Generosity Outreach Officer of the national setting of the United Church of Christ.  In that role he trains, coaches, and mentors conference and congregational leaders to strengthen the culture of generosity across the UCC.  Andrew also serves as Director of Development for the Wisconsin Conference.  He leads the fundraising efforts of the conference, supports the planned giving and effective philanthropy of congregations, and started a foundation.  Andrew connects people’s deepest passions with generative opportunities and initiatives. Previously, Andrew served for twenty-two years as pastor of Plymouth Church UCC of Milwaukee.  He loves to cook and entertain, a practice he calls his “gastro-evangelism.”
