Life has changed dramatically in the last few weeks and that change is still unfolding. In the midst of this change, people are needing the peace and comfort provided by faith in God. At the same time, as our normal patterns are upended and the nation is struggling economically, we worry about financial resources for our ministries. It is critically important now that we Church leaders focus on how we tell our story of impact, how we invite people to generosity, and how we envision a future where our congregations are more important and vital than ever.
Even though the Thrive Mission Campaign is now postponed due to the pandemic, the generosity of those who have already given to Thrive positions us to be able to offer today’s workshop. We are grateful to those who were able to provide early support to Thrive, which remains more important than ever in helping the Synod help you.
