Strengthening Congregations Together
Regional ministry gives you a unique view of the opportunities and challenges facing congregations. You know where leaders are thriving, where they’re struggling, and where the right support at the right time can make a difference.
The Center for Faith & Giving partners with regions to equip leaders, strengthen financial practices, cultivate generosity, and help congregations build greater capacity for ministry.
Equip Your Leaders
Bring Learning to Your Region
Give pastors, treasurers, finance teams, and other leaders practical tools they can put to work. CFG can partner with your region to offer workshops, webinars, and facilitated learning around stewardship, generosity, and faithful financial leadership.
Programs include annual Stewardship Sessions, Faithful Financial Leadership for Congregations, Cultivating Generous Congregations, Regional Financial Ethics Boundary Trainings, and customized learning opportunities designed around the needs of your region.
Support Your Congregations
Connect Churches with the Help They Need
Sometimes a resource is enough. Sometimes a congregation needs someone to walk alongside them.
CFG can help you connect congregations with practical resources, coaching, and personalized support for the stewardship and financial questions they’re facing. Through Generosity Plus, congregations can receive support tailored to their particular context, challenges, and opportunities.
Share Stewardship Theme Materials
Put Great Resources in Every Congregation’s Hands
Make it easier for congregations across your region to talk about generosity. Regions can sponsor CFG’s annual Stewardship Theme Materials, giving participating congregations access to ready-to-use worship, preaching, Bible study, and campaign resources.
Regional sponsorship can expand access while giving congregations a shared starting point for conversations about generosity and stewardship.
Tell Your Region’s Story
Build a Narrative Budget for Your Region
Regional ministry can be difficult to capture in a traditional line-item budget. A narrative budget helps people see the ministry behind the numbers—connecting financial resources with the congregations, leaders, communities, and ministries your region serves.
CFG can help your region develop a narrative budget that communicates not simply what you spend, but what your shared generosity makes possible.

We’re Part of the Same Church – Let’s Build Something Together!
Every region is different, and regional leaders are often the first call when a congregation faces a financial challenge, needs help strengthening its stewardship practices, or begins asking difficult questions about sustainability. You don’t have to do that work alone.
CFG can help you develop learning opportunities, equip groups of congregations, respond to emerging needs, or adapt resources for your particular context. Whether you need a resource to share, an experienced voice for a difficult situation, or a partner to help you imagine what’s possible, call on us. If we can help, we will. If someone else across the life of the Church is better equipped to help, we’ll help make the connection.
Have an idea—or a challenge you’re trying to address? We’d love to hear about it!
