University Avenue Chicago, IL 60615 mccormick.edu How do you inspire generosity during difficult economic times? What do you do when the landscape of religious giving is dramatically changing? How do you apply needed training and tools to meet the needs of your congregation or non-profit institution? Awaken Explore Create In partnership with Lake Institute on Faith & Giving, the McCormick Theological Seminary has embarked upon a new comprehensive training program – the Executive Certificate in Religious Fundraising. The course will be held June 1-4, 2015, at McCormick Theological Seminary. Religious leaders in faith-based organizations and institutions who wish to learn more about the spirituality of fundraising and gain a core foundation in fundraising principles are invited to register. The purpose of the ECRF is simple – to provide clergy with expertise in fundraising principles and practices and to train development personnel who serve faith-based organizations. There is no intentional fundraising training program that focuses exclusively on the needs, challenges and opportunities of people serving religious congregations. ECRF offers a balanced exploration of congregational cultures, generosity and the fundamentals of fundraising. The ECRF program introduces Presbyterian and other faith-based fundraisers to additional and advanced training resources, addressing the continuing education needs of clergy and other leaders who aspire to make a difference. This new opportunity is intended to strengthen pastoral leadership in resource development. Participants will learn core fundraising principles and explore the rituals and practices that foster generosity, with the educational and theological rigor that addresses the needs of faith leaders. Lake Institute ON FAITH & GIVING About the Institute Course Instructors As part of the Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, Lake Institute on Faith & Giving is dedicated to helping people of faith think creatively and reflectively on the relationship between their religion and their philanthropy. DR. WILLIAM ENRIGHT is the founding Karen Lake Buttrey Director of Lake Institute on Faith & Giving. He now serves as the Senior Fellow.

For more than 10 years, the Institute has offered a place where clergy and laity of all faiths can openly discuss issues of money, faith and giving; donors can discern how their personal values influence their philanthropic action; and academicians can study the intersection of faith and giving. The Institute translates research findings into practical training for practitioners and parishes.
