1,000 Clergy and Leaders Flock to Stewardship Workshops

Falls Church, VA – In more than 20 cities across the Mid-Atlantic, pastors and lay leaders flocked to a series of stewardship workshops to receive training from the nation’s foremost church fund raising firm, James D. Klote & Associates. “Strengthening Stewardship in Challenging Economic Times” attracted hundreds of churches from Virginia Beach to Washington, DC, providing professional coaching and guidance to finance chairs, treasurers, denominational leaders, and senior pastors from churches of all sizes.

“This is the first time I have seen stewardship taught in a practical, achievable fashion,” commented Reverend Tricia Riggs in Virginia Beach. “I never knew that we could get so much useful information in that short of a time frame,” said Kathy Dziagwa of Norfolk. Jim Klote, President and CEO of the presenting consulting firm, remarked on how impressed he was with workshop participants: “They’re committed to making their local church ministries a priority in their lives. Participants have just been outstanding, asking great questions and offering positive discussions.”

With offices in Falls Church, Virginia and St. Charles, Illinois, James D. Klote & Associates is the largest full-time, on-site stewardship consulting firm in the country. For additional information, please contact the firm at www.jdklote.com or (800) 360-2315.
