Faithful Stewards Commission

The Episcopal Diocese of Northern Indiana offers resources to strengthen stewardship ministry for Annual, Planned and Special (such as Capital) Giving. Bishop Douglas Sparks created the Faithful Stewards Commission to coordinate this effort. The Commission’s mission is to serve as a resource to promote, explain and celebrate the spiritual growth and ministries of our faith communities and the wider church that result from honoring God as faithful stewards of His abundance.

The Episcopal Network for Stewardship (TENS)
