How we use time, talent, treasure and more matters to God. Is your Moravian congregation living into the incredible responsibility, privilege and joy of becoming the stewards God intends us to be? The Moravian Ministries Foundation in America provides Stewardship Services to help people of faith along the journey to live more fully into our identity as stewards.

Thriving churches pay attention to these four critical areas of stewardship:

  • Theology
  • Leadership
  • Mission and vision
  • Year-round action

After an assessment on the four areas above, we can help your congregation identify:

  • Short term goals
  • Long term changes the church hopes to see
  • Benchmarks
  • Action plans

Our Stewardship Services incorporate three key components of financial stewardship: annual, planned, and capital giving.
