In our Helping without Hurting in Benevolence Ministry training, we share principles and tools to help you build a ministry that leads to real change. But there isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution for every church. In order to create a benevolence program that works for your specific church context, you may need to make adjustments to fit your church’s specific capacity. Local churches can vary dramatically in terms of the financial, human, and networking resources they can devote to their benevolence ministries. For example, most small- to mid-sized churches do not have full-time, paid staff to oversee their benevolence work, while some larger churches do. Here are some questions that can guide you toward creating a healthy benevolence ministry that works for you. 1️⃣ How many members/regular attendees does your church have? 2️⃣ How many paid staff does your church have? Count ministerial roles, not administrators or support staff (unless they help with outreach/benevolence). 3️⃣ What is your current annual benevolence budget? Include only the money specifically given toward or earmarked for caring for those in poverty in your church and/or community. Once you’ve answered these questions, consider the following levels we share in the post below to help you focus on building a benevolence ministry that fits your church. https://lnkd.in/gr9yk4ix
