STEWARDSHIP
- A WAY OF LIFE
What are you looking
for from your parish?
-
To grow closer
to God?
-
To meet more of
your fellow parishioners?
-
To have an
opportunity to make a difference?
-
To know that you belong here?
Our
parish Stewardship program offers you a chance to do all of this and
much more. Stewardship is
all about how we show our love and gratitude to God.
Stewardship is how we use the many gifts that God has given to
us. Stewardship is how we
deepen our relationship with Our Lord and with one another.
Stewardship
can help you find what you are looking for in our parish.
When the first disciples began to follow Jesus, our Lord turned
and asked them, “What are you looking for?”
Jesus then invited them, “Come, and you will see.” (John 1:37, 39) In
the same way, our parish invites you today - Come, There Is Work
to Be Done. Each of
us is called to offer our gifts to support God’s work here on earth.
There is work for all of us to do. Today
I ask you to respond with a grateful and loving heart and be a part of
that work.
-
If you can spend a little more time in prayer, Mass
attendance, or other parish spiritual activities, you will grow
closer to God.
-
If you can volunteer to be involved in any of our many
parish activities and ministries, you will meet more of your fellow
parishioners.
-
If you can share more of your financial gifts to support
God’s work that happens in our parish, you will make a difference.
-
If you can invest more of your time, talent and treasure
in any way in our parish, you will feel more connected to all that we do
and you will know that you belong here.
