“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.” (James 1:17 ESV)
This verse from James is the inspiration for our theme this year. God is the perfect giver and provides for all of our needs. Our challenge is to be good and generous stewards of what God has provided.
The resources that have been posted on the TENS website for members to use include: an introduction to the theme; reflections written by generous stewards around the Church for the Fall propers; letters for use by the Rector/Vicar; and a pledge card. In the coming weeks, we will post letters from stewardship committee leaders and other helpful pieces to strengthen your campaign’s success. A little later, we will upload these resources in other languages.
Here is the website: www.tens.org/resources. This material is available to members only and there is new login information which has been given to the diocesan members. If you need help, please contact us at tens@tens.org.
