The Generosity Project

The Generosity Project

Connecting Generations, Equipping Households, Cultivating the Faith Practice of Generosity Together

THE GENEROSITY PROJECT is a lively half-day, interactive, intergenerational workshop, modeling a congregation’s potential to connect and equip all ages and generations as steward leaders in the congregation and in the home.

Equipping households to daily respond to God’s extravagant generosity is a year-round opportunity. Equipping individuals of each generation, age, and stage to live as grateful stewards offers endless, creative possibilities!

Generosity is best learned together.

  • Explore stories of God’s generosity.
  • Discover how generosity helps us grow in faith.
  • Learn how to create a culture of generosity in your home and congregation.
  • Consider how daily decisions to share, save and spend are shaped by our relationship with God.
  • Celebrate God’s goodness and abundance!

The 2022 Generosity Project workshop will be held November 5th from 10AM to 2PM at First English Lutheran Church in Peoria. Download the flyer.
