Stewardship is a beautiful expression of our love of God. It is a way of life whereby we, as disciples, recognize
that a person is not an absolute master of his/her own gifts. As stewards, we are caretakers of all God's gifts.
All we have and all we are comes from God, and as a way to thank Him for His blessings, we return to God, a portion
of the time and treasure allotted to us. In Paul's second letter to the Corinthians we hear the words "You are
being enriched in every way for all generosity, which through us....supplies the needs of the holy ones but is also
overflowing in many acts of thanksgiving to God."
The Stewardship Drive is our opportunity to Celebrate Our Gifts that God has bestowed on our parish family and to
recommit ourselves to share with others what we have been given through our donation of time, talent and treasure.
I ask you to read, reflect, and commit yourselves in various ways to share your blessings with others. This process
will help us deepen our faith and forever change our lives for the better. Jesus tells us through the gospel of
Matthew, "Your light must shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Heavenly Father."
(Matthew 5:16) Your good works will allow God to touch others through you. Let your light shine through your good
works so that together, we can celebrate the blessings of the God who loves us.
