This author analyzed giving in the United Church of Canada over six years in light of congregational stewardship practices. Fewer givers gave more: annual per capita giving increased 25%. Responses to 3,034 congregational surveys indicated positive correlation between increased generosity and stewardship leadership, spiritual nurture, social justice involvement, and stewardship best practices. Congregations where givers and revenue increased, with individual annual giving over {dollar}1,000, more often engaged all of these strategies. Congregations with decreasing revenue were least likely to use any of them. Using only some practices did not produce the same level of results as using all of them.
