LOUISVILLE — Planners of Stewardship Kaleidoscope recently acted to extend the conference’s Early Bird registration rate through July 31 due to a technical issue, which has since been resolved, that prevented the team from receiving email inquiries sent to its collaborative inbox.

Themed “Doing More in BaltiMORE,” the 2026 conference will be held live at the Renaissance Baltimore Harborplace Hotel, Sept. 21-23. To enable broader participation, a virtual attendee registration option is again being offered.

Early-bird pricing saves $50 per person off the regular registration rate for in-person attendees.

There is also a discount for seminarians, first-call pastors, and groups of three or more participants attending the conference from the same church. The deadline to register for in-person attendance is Sept. 4.

Drawing leaders from across the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, the Episcopal Church, and other ecumenical partners, Stewardship Kaleidoscope is designed to ignite generosity in faith-based communities, give practical tools for cultivating generosity in congregations, expand the leadership capacity of those who lead stewardship initiatives, and cultivate adaptive approaches for funding Christ’s mission.

The 2026 conference will feature an exciting lineup of plenary speakers and preachers:

  • Shane Claiborne, activist and bestselling author of “The Irresistible Revolution: Living as an Ordinary Radical” and other popular works
  • Robert Hall, consultant and author of “This Land of Strangers: The Relationship Crisis That Imperils Home, Work, Politics and Faith”
  • Bethany Peerbolte, an ordained PC(USA) minister known to many as the “TikTok Pastor”
  • The Rt. Rev. Sarah K. Fisher, 9th Bishop of the Diocese of East Carolina, Kinston, North Carolina
  • The Rev. Christopher M. Lee, Executive Presbyter, Grace Presbytery , Dallas, Texas.

In addition to experiencing diverse plenary sessions and worship opportunities, on-site conference participants will be able to choose from dozens of workshops. Virtual attendees will be able to attend livestreamed and recorded plenaries and worship, and will also have access to eight workshops, four of which will be available via be livestream.
