Who does what to promote Christian Giving within the parish

The Parochial Church Council (PCC) decides the policy to be adopted and how often a Stewardship Renewal Programme shall take place in the parish. The Vicar, one of the other clergy or Licensed Lay Minister may be asked to preach a sermon at the time this is taking place. Annual renewal is recommended.

The PCC may decide to do this in conjunction with a Parish Conference or 'away day'

The preacher explains the Biblical and theological principles as to why Christians give back to God a token part of their income, in thanks for his love and generosity. This may also be done in house groups rather than as a sermon or series of sermons.

The PCC may appoint an individual or committee to be responsible for ensuring that everyone receives appropriate information describing the reasons for Christian Giving, together with an appropriate commitment form, at the time of renewal. The page headed How to organise an Annual Renewal explains who to include in the Stewardship Renewal Programme

This same individual will be responsible for following up the members of the congregation, to ensure that the commitment forms are completed.

Clergy and lay people must work together to make sure that Stewardship is properly understood and, where a committee is appointed, all parties are represented. Clergy should at least understand the process of carrying out Stewardship Renewal. The leading lay people should at least be able to expound the theology adequately.

More information on the exact method of carrying out an Annual Stewardship Renewal can be found in the page entitled How to organise an Annual Renewal.
