Stewardship Resources - Including Children and Youth

Make It SimpleMake It Simple


Make It Simple is the title of a new resource available from our friends at the ELCA stewardship offices. This comprehensive resource was developed over an 18 month period and includes materials for both Year-Round Stewardship Education as well as the Annual Commitment Program ("Annual Stewardship Emphasis" in ELCAeze).

This resource is available both online and in a combination of CD/DVD format including several videos. The comprehensive annual commitment program resources are organized around four different themes: Following Jesus, Facing the Truth, Acting Together, and Sharing Enough.

Stewardship Education Resources for Children and Youth

This is not intended to be the last word in currently available stewardship education resources for children and youth, but I offer it to you in hopes that you might collaborate with me in sharing what other resources you have discovered that are useful.

Remember: if you are ignoring the opportunity to educate children and youth on Christian Stewardship principals and practices, don't expect them to become instant generous givers when they suddenly become adults.
