| What is Parish Stewardship?
Parish Stewardship is one way of organizing the gifts of parishioners resources to invigorate the parish community. Good disciples are good stewards. They know that God has given them time, talent, and treasure to be shared with others. Therefore, they plan and budget their resources wisely so that God's will can come first in their lives, so that prayer and service can be high on their list of priorities. Our office can help teach your parishioners how to be good stewards of their God given resources. |
