Stewarship Categories
There are six categories of stewards:
- Benefactor
- Steward of the Cross
- Steward of the Light
- Steward of Love
- Steward of Hope
- Steward of Faith
All of the above categories of stewards entail joint (husband and wife) membership, the focus being the involvement of the Armenian Family in their Church's affairs.
The Benefactors of the Stewardship Program make a one-time substantial donation of $25,000 and Stewards of the Cross are those who make a one-time substantial donation of $10,000.
The remaining stewardship categories require an annual pledge donation for the Diocese. The Stewards of the Light annual pledge is $1,000, the Stewards of Love annual pledge is $500, the Stewards of Hope annual pledge is $250, and the Stewards of Faith annual pledge is $100.
The names of the Benefactors and Stewards of the Cross are inscribed on a Bronze Plaque located in the Paul Galleria of the Diocesan Complex.
Benefits of Being a Steward
The primary reward of stewardship is the satisfaction one receives in supporting our Lord's unique Armenian Church - a Church that has sustained us and kept our spirit alive over seventeen centuries under difficult, trying, and sometimes tragic circumstances.
The Armenian Church is ours! It is a priceless gift to us from our Lord. The Armenian Church deserves our full support.
