“We live our baptism promises by serving others” - Father John Forbes
Stewardship involves Time, Talent, Treasure, Prayer Service and Sharing. As we parishioners become more aware of our baptismal responsibilities and God's gifts to us, we want to reach out to others. Let us begin by asking God to help us dig deeper into our souls, so that we understand where we stand in our responsibility to be a more involved Christian, to be closer to God, to deeply understand the psalmist “What return can I make to the Lord, for all that the Lord has given to me?” (Psalm 116:12)
The Council suggests that each member of our Parish pray in gratitude for the gifts God has given us and ask ourselves, how each of us is taking care of our gifts. -
Getting Started
What is a Christian disciple? It is one who responds to Christ's call and shapes his/her life in imitation of Christ. A Christian steward is one who receives all of God's gifts gratefully, cherishes and tends them in a responsible and accountable manner, shares them in justice and love with others and returns them with increase to the Lord.
Father Forbes recommends that all disciples read the Pastoral Letter on Stewardship, put forth by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. A link to this can be found under the "Links" section on this page.
