A new wave of partnerships to implement strategies in church-wide communications and improved services to congregations was announced at a recent benefit dinner for the Atlanta-based Episcopal Media Center, an independent non-profit organization that serves Episcopal clergy and parishes. The event drew representatives from the Dioceses of New York and Long Island, staff from the Episcopal Church Center, the General Theological Seminary and Morehouse Publishing.
'Many of us who worked together recently to produce the stewardship education resource, Living with Money, now realize that any vision of the future in church communications must be reflected in a new spirit of collaboration,' said the Rev. Louis Schueddig, executive director of the Media Center. 'Too many of us have worked alone, under-funded, often competing with our own brothers and sisters in Christ, and simply not getting much accomplished.'
The first copy of the stewardship resource was presented to Presiding Bishop Frank T. Griswold at the event. The video-based curriculum is the result of substantial collaboration over the last few years among various Episcopal agencies and ministries. They worked together in a task force that included national church offices of stewardship, media services and communication, as well as several independent agencies such as Morehouse Publishing, the Episcopal Network for Stewardship, the Episcopal Church Foundation, the Seabury Institute, and Seabury-Western Theological Seminary.
