William Enright
Mondays, April 30, May 7, 14 & 21, Indianapolis
As stewardship and finance issues continue to be areas of interest to congregations, the Center offers opportunities to explore these topics. Congregations are invited to a workshop series this Spring and Fall to discuss faith, money, and giving.
Clergy will meet 9:30 a.m.-3 p.m. Mondays from April 30 to May 21 to look at a wide range of issues, including current trends in religious giving, the history of financing religion in America and rituals of giving. While the workshop touches on topics directly related to fundraising techniques and stewardship drives, the conversations will go much deeper, revealing the multifaceted dynamics of faith and giving. In the Fall, teams of lay leaders from these congregations will meet on three consecutive Monday evenings to investigate these same issues.
William Enright leads the workshop series. He is executive director of the Lake Family Institute on Faith and Giving at the Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University and former senior pastor of the Second Presbyterian Church, Indianapolis. He has authored several books, and he lectures at numerous colleges, universities and theological institutions.
Faith, Money, and Giving is 9:30 a.m.-3 p.m. Mondays, April 30 and May 7, 14, and 21, at the Indianapolis Center for Congregations, 303 N. Alabama St. The workshop series is free. Registration is required. The workshop is limited to 10 congregations. To inquire or register, contact Tim Shapiro at tshapiro@centerforcongregations.org or 317-237-7799.
