Pastors and other people without a financial management background or education still have fiduciary duties. In addition, endowment and investment management can be a source of conflict within congregations. This webinar will help people navigate in what be a foreign land for them.

We will cover: What are the right questions to ask? How do you evaluate the answers to these questions? What are common pitfalls and how do we avoid them? How do you bring theology into the conversation? Where can you find resources and allies?

The goal of this webinar is to equip and encourage people to engage in oversight of endowments and investments. This often leads to opportunities to strengthen the mission and ministries of the congregation.
