Blessed to Be a Blessing
 The Office of Stewardship of the Episcopal Church is offering a program called Blessed to Be A Blessing, which offers tools to enhance stewardship campaigns and features prominent writers from throughout the Episcopal Church. This six-week series invites reflection and discussion on stewardship principles and practices based on the Gospel readings from Mark each Sunday from October 7 through November 11, 2012. Blessed to Be A Blessing materials are available for free at http://www.episcopalchurch.org/page/blessed-be-blessing.
