Rev. Lillie, before ordination, was a business owner, speaker, trainer, and author and was privileged to travel all over the world assisting people through organizational changes.

Rev. Brock says,“MCC runs deep in my bones and in my family. My father, Rev. Jimmy Brock served MCC
for 20 years before his death and my grandparents and mother have long supported our movement. It’s hard to imagine that anything could ever move me away from the church that saved our lives.”

Rev. Lillie has been a member of MCC since 1981 and before ordination, served in many lay roles and has been a member of 8 different MCC churches through those 45 years.

Rev. Brock has served as a clergy person in MCC for 25 years and during that time served as a Pastor on Staff at the Cathedral of Hope in Dallas, TX, as an Elder in the denomination for a decade, and as the Pastor of Congregational Life at MCC of Greater St. Louis, MO.

Join Rev. Elder Lillie Brock for two (2) 90-minute sessions as she shares her work on creating a culture of generosity within your church—inviting everyone to engage in sustaining the mission and vision of your community.

Please join us and spend some time doing the only thing that can ever truly ensure that your church has a strong financial base and a congregation that gives beyond its walls while balancing its budget: GENEROSITY!

➡️ How to teach, preach and live generosity as the spiritual leader
➡️ How to make generosity a focus all year long

We will learn about:
➡️ The building blocks for creating a culture of generosity
➡️ The difference between generous giving and transactional giving
➡️ Planning and putting together a successful pledge campaign

Over the past 6 years, the congregation at Church of the Trinity MCC, has built an incredible culture of generosity. I look forward to sharing our story and how we got there!

The practice of generosity is so much more than pledge campaigns and calls for the offering on Sunday. In this webinar, we will explore what it takes to create, over time, a culture of generosity in your congregation.

What ritual or symbol could be used to welcome online members? Are there other approaches to having accurate, current membership roles? Let's talk about the why's and how's of church membership and how it helps or hurts our Being MCC.

Since MCC says it celebrates diverse theologies, are our membership practices/policies in conflict with that belief? How might we reimagine "membership as presence, contribution, or transformation whether someone is onsite or online?
