Cornerstone Workshops

Cornerstone is a free online tool designed to encourage generosity and giving. The Cornerstone platform helps churches understand their current financial situation, improve their finances, and grow a culture of giving within the church.

Cornerstone can support your church in three main ways:

1. It uses your Parish Returns data to provide clear financial insights and helps identify gaps and opportunities to increase giving.
2. It offers short, step-by-step pathways with templates, videos, and guides to encourage giving and generosity. For example, “Find and Engage New Regular Givers” or “Teaching and Preaching on Generosity.”
3. It provides access to a regularly updated grants database to help fund special projects. All churches receive completely free access to over 900 grants curated specifically for church needs.

The Workshops are aimed at those who have attended the Cornerstone Introduction, and we will dig deeper into following topics

• Foundations of building a generous church
• Understanding your generosity review
• Unpacking your numbers
• The 5 types of Giver and communications
• Pathways and how they can help your church
