Introduction

What is Stewardship Key Leader

Stewardship Key Leader is a ministry of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America that strengthens congregations by helping them raise funds and experience renewal in faith and mission. This ministry has been used by congregations to raise funds for new building projects and debt reduction. Stewardship Key Leader has also often been used for congregation's annual stewardship response program.

Stewardship Key Leader is based on the conviction that our generous God calls us to generous lives, and that what God's people do with their finances both flows from faith and contributes to a growing faith. Prayer and scripture are at the heart of the program.

Stewardship Key Leader is also based on the conviction that every congregation has capable, committed leaders. What congregations need to conduct an effective capital, debt or annual stewardship appeal is a road map, a proven program and a committed leader who provides excellent training and coaching. The program is designed to teach Biblical stewardship, clearly communicate the importance of the congregation's project and ministry, and inspire generosity. Stewardship Key Leader provides this at a significant cost savings to congregations.
