The essence of Christianity

"God loves a cheerful giver", said Paul.
"And that's as it should be. God has been so generous to us that we should laugh and cheer about it, and get on with copying him"



What we are about...


Stewardship is not an event but a way of life.
+ Bishop Tom












It reflects the way we think about all we do and all we plan. In fact it is a reliable barometer of our Christian Life.

Christian Stewardship is fundamentally about our commitment to God and the use of personal and corporate resources for the ministry and mission of the church.

The emphasis in a Christian Stewardship Programme, is on growth in the life of the Church, spiritual, numerical and financial.

The Stewardship Department has the experience and the expertise to help every church capture a vision for the future and translate it into action.

Christian Stewardship Programmes:-
  • Strengthen the core membership of the church for joint working.
  • Reach out to and involve people on the fringes of church life.
  • Help parishes make better use of the resources at their disposal – buildings and people.
  • Raise more income, almost as a bi-product.
