BuildingaGenerousCultureofStewardshipStewardship is an expression of faith. It is not simply the church’s way of raising money; rather, it is a spiritual discipline that encompasses our very beings as Christians. It is a radical departure from our secular understanding of charity where we give to an external need. Instead, as stewards, we are motivated to give because it is something we internally need to do. Giving is not predicated on a certain act, nor is it something we do just because it is convenient. Our vocation as Christians is that we give freely and in great generosity “for God loves a cheerful giver” (2 Corinthians 9:7). Recognizing that God actually gave us everything we have “in trust”, we, in turn, share the gifts that we have been given.


GIFT PLANNING

Many capital improvements to St. Olave’s over the past 20 years have been made due to the generosity of parishioners remembering St. Olave’s in their will. A Planned Gift is a way of contributing to the mission and ministry of the church from your accumulated assets. It is a deferred gift – you decide now how you would like your assets to be used later.

The most popular form of Planned Giving is a bequest – you simply include a gift to the Church in your will, for example, St. Olave’s Anglican Church or the Second Century Mission Fund, organ repair and maintenance. If you know how you would like the gift to be used, be specific. Decisions on these matters are a very personal and important part of your overall financial planning. Contact your Rector, Wardens, lawyer or financial planner for more information.

As noted in our 2018 Commitment Form, we encourage you to make a conscious effort to determine how much you could plan to give in 2018. Many people might wonder what an appropriate level of giving would be in proportion to your income. If you haven’t already filled out your form, the Proportional Giving Chart on the next page may be of help to you. A good place to start is 2%, but every family’s situation is unique, so whatever you can commit to is helpful to your budgeting team.
