Andy Wright, Generous Living Advisor
Andy supports parishes and LMPs as they seek to develop generosity in all its forms; as an expression of our discipleship and in response to God’s generosity. His work focuses on an holistic approach to developing a culture of generosity, covering areas such as time, skills, talents, and hospitality, as well as money. Andy welcomes invitations to meet with clergy, parish officers, LMP leaders and anyone in a position to encourage generosity in their church. andy.wright@lincoln.anglican.org

We produce a quarterly newsletter for PCC treasurers and clergy, providing news and updates on issues relating to developing generosity. If you think you should be receiving this but have not, please contact us.
