As you begin thinking about your fall stewardship campaign, the diocese is pleased to offer helpful resources through TENS (The Episcopal Network for Stewardship), an association of lay and ordained leaders “who are committed to living generously and helping others live generously.”
Through the diocese’s membership in TENS, our congregations have access to complete pledge campaign materials each year, all centered around a unifying theme. The 2026 theme is “Plenty Good Room.” This theme emphasizes the abundance and inclusivity of God’s house, serving as a vital reminder that there is always space for more connection, creativity, and love.
As a member, you’ll find resources in English and Spanish, including campaign timelines and guides, sample letters, liturgical materials, logos and artwork, customizable pledge cards, and seasonal and weekly reflections. To access the TENS materials, visit their website and use the 2026 diocesan password: Matthew22:4.
The Stewardship Commission is here to support you in all aspects of stewardship: annual, year-round practices, major gift, campaigns, and planned giving. If it would be helpful to talk or to have us visit, please contact Amy Amason (amysamason@gmail.com | 478-457-5611.) We’d also encourage you to explore our resources on the Stewardship page of our website.
