We at the
Office of Parish Stewardship strive to provide a servant-leadership role to the parishes
enrolled in the Program by offering support, assistance, resources and
materials, and formational opportunities to Parish Stewardship Leaders.
Our goal is to help make
Stewardship
A Way of Life throughout our Diocese as we all go about the business of
helping to build the Kingdom of God on Earth.
Parishes connecting with the Diocesan Stewardship Effort may choose from five
theme and materials packages. These packages contain many of the elements
needed to conduct a successful parish stewardship renewal. Each is
designed to lead the parish through a process of growth and renewal as we take a
step on our faith journey. For example, "We are the Hands of Christ."
This theme and materials package, recognized for excellence by the International
Stewardship Council, was inspired by the prayer of St. Teresa of Avila from the 16th
century. It is a most fitting stewardship theme in that everything we do,
we do in the name of Jesus including the work of our hands.
Our materials are designed to help people in our parishes reflect
upon how the works that we do reflect our Christianity. How we use our
individual God-given gifts gives witness to what we believe. How does
each one of us live out Jesus’ call to discipleship? How do we respond to that
call, especially as we are several years into the New Millennium.
Talk to your Pastor about the ways your Parish
is fostering Stewardship as a Way of Life
in your community!
