What is Stewardship? “Stewardship” is a disciple’s response to what God asks. We have all been given so many gifts and blessings by God. He now asks us to share those gifts with others for the benefit of His kingdom! These gifts include our time, talent and treasure.
As a committed disciple of Jesus Christ, we make connections between stewardship, evangelization & Catholic social teaching and the challenges that consumerism & materialism are to the Christian steward.
“…each according to his abilities.”
I would like to take this opportunity to “Thank You” for your Financial Support of our Parish and at the same time, I need to make this request:
In order to stay current on our increased operational expenses, and our Diocesan monthly Advanced Missionary Discipleship (AMD) Assessment of $12,213.89, along with large maintenance projects, an increase of 15% in the Collection of tithes and offerings is needed and would make it possible to maintain a healthy financial position for our Parish.
The Good Lord is certainly blessing our Parish in every way, and may he continue to bless you and your family as we work together.
“…each according to his abilities.”
Sincerely,
Fr. Wertin
“…cada uno según sus capacidades”.
Me gustaría aprovechar esta oportunidad para dar “gracias” por su apoyo financiero a nuestra parroquia y al mismo tiempo necesito hacer esta solicitud:
Para mantenernos al día con nuestros mayores gastos operativos y nuestra Evaluación Diocesana mensual de Discipulado Misionero Avanzado (AMD) de $12,213.89, junto con grandes proyectos de mantenimiento, se necesitaría un aumento de 15% en la Colecta de diezmos y ofrendas para mantener una posición financiera saludable para nuestra Parroquia.
El Buen Dios ciertamente está bendiciendo nuestra Parroquia en todos los sentidos y que continúe bendiciendo a usted y a su familia mientras trabajamos juntos.
“…cada uno según sus capacidades”.
Atentamente,
P. Wertín
