Are you connected?

Are you connected to the Episcopal Church Building Fund?
The Episcopal Church Building Fund is eager to help you rethink how your parish is using its physical resources to support and expand its mission. In addition to working with churches and dioceses across the United States individually, we hope that our online presence will encourage the sharing of best practices and ideas amongst clergy and lay staff members who are commonly faced with shrinking budgets, deferred maintenance issues, and dwindling endowments.

You can visit our website to learn more about what the ECBF is all about, "like" us on Facebook or follow us on Twitter  to stay current with what we're up to, or watch one or more videos describing how we are helping churches just like yours on our YouTube channel.

Also, we would like to remind you to save the date for our annual symposium, "Buildings for a New Tomorrow" that will be held from April 15-17, 2012 in Baltimore, Maryland. Registration will be open on our website here shortly after the first of the year.  Watch a video from last year's symposium online here.

If you have questions about what the ECBF can do for your parish or diocese, please contact a member of our staff.

"Helping you to become unsettled enough to make radical change."

"Helping you to become unsettled enough to make radical change."

That's what the third annual Buildings For a New Tomorrow will do for you.

Please please join us in Baltimore, MD, on April 15-17, 2012 to attend this mind shifting, Go Big or Go Home, national symposium to alter the way you think about doing church.

Last year's "Buildings For a New Tomorrow" was a huge success. We hope that you will take a moment to watch the short video below featuring candid comments and reactions from last year's symposium in Salt Lake City, Utah.



We are committed to bringing you new ideas, inspiration, hope, and valuable connections.
