Stewardship and Financial Development Committee

Strategic Plan update as presented at the 59th Synod.

From time to time parishes or groups within the Diocese have needs that require the support of the entire Diocesan family. NeighbourWorks is a program to support funding of projects that further the vision and mission of the Diocese while responding to specific parish needs. The Stewardship & Financial Development Committee has prepared a NeighbourWorks Diocesan Project Framework document that outlines the process to be followed for Diocesan projects.
