Running Giving Reviews
Giving Reviews are a valuable tool to help PCCs to enable and inspire giving and provide signposts to a wide range of approaches and resources to help build a generous church:
- A Giving Review prompt sheet which will help you think about generosity in your church.
- The Generosity Toolkit to identify what you are doing well and where you could improve and grow.
