Stewardship is:

• Our response to God’s unfailing love and gratitude for His many blessings brought to our lives
• A commitment to freely offer our time, talent, and material resources in support and in participation with Christ in His love for us and our neighbors.

How can I support the ministry of the Church?

• Support and share Christ’s Gospel message of salvation to the world.
• Provide the time, talent, and treasure necessary to promote the goals of our parish: 1) To equip its members for the work of the ministry, for the building up of the Body of Christ until
• we all reach the unity in the faith (Ephesians 4:12-13) and 2) that together we grow in the grace and knowledge of our lord and Savior Jesus Christ (2 Peter 3:18).
• Support and participate in ministries and service to others.
