How can I raise enough support? Do you offer training?

Reaching your target is possible! Building a partner team, however, is more than just hitting your target or a necessary evil to enable you to do what God has called you to. It's all about relationship; inviting others to help make that mission possible and giving them the opportunity to join in through joining you in prayer, financial support and encouragement. It’s about  building the Kingdom together.  If they’re up for it, great, but it's equally valid if they feel it's not for them at that point.                                                                                 

Get started by watching our mini-series: 'What I wish I knew before I started Support Raising'. 

Our Support Raising Training takes our partners on a journey through what the Bible says about living on support, how to do it practically and how to deal with the heart issues it raises. 

The cost is subsidised at £145.50, the equivalent of just four new supporters giving £30 a month with Gift Aid, however attendees increase their monthly support by an average of £344 a month in the months following the training. How much you raise is completely in your hands.

Take Greg with Every Nation who said "Since I first did the Support Raising Training with Stewardship my monthly income has grown by £2598 a month, including Gift Aid. My wife and I had heard the call to plant a church in Cardiff, BUT we had a massive support goal to raise, and I wasn’t really sure where to start! Stewardship’s training helped me on so many fronts, from understanding the theological underpinning to living on support, to being equipped on a practical level to move people from interested contacts to committed partners. It's been nearly two years since the training, and while there have been challenges, we have had an incredibly stable income for the last 18 months. Thank you, Stewardship, for helping us and so many others to resource the mission!"

We continue to support you after the training with our free monthly Support Raising Surgery because we know there will be more questions which come up along the way and challenges to navigate. We will help you keep on track and reach your target. The surgery is an hour-long Zoom meeting once a month. You can join us as often as you like.
