A Free Webinar on Stewarding Significant Gifts
Tuesday, October 27 | 10:30 a.m. CT
Online | Free Webinar – For Pastors and Congregational Leaders of the LCMS
A significant gift can be an incredible blessing for your congregation. It can also bring some big questions.
Should the gift address an immediate need? Help expand ministry? Be invested to provide support for years to come? There are several options to consider, and every congregation’s circumstances are different.
If investing is one of the options your congregation is considering, this free 45-minute webinar can help you better understand your investment options.
Join the LCMS Foundation as we explore how investing a significant gift can help support ministry today while creating ongoing resources for the future. We’ll look at the difference between opening a simple investment fund and establishing an endowment, what each approach offers and requires, and some of the practical questions congregational leaders should consider.
