Stewardship is a complete lifestyle.
Stewardship asks us to put God's priorities before our own. Good stewards give the first portion of their gifts of time, talent and treasure to the Lord's work in gratitude for His many blessings. This practice of giving of our "first fruits" incorporates the aspect of sacrificial giving. "I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all the other contributors to the temple treasury. For they have all contributed from their surplus wealth, but she, from her poverty, has contributed all she had, her whole livelihood." (Mark 12:43-44)
At Sacred Hearts, we believe that each of us is responsible for the time, talent and treasure that God, our creator, has given to us. As good stewards, we see ourselves as caretakers of all God's gifts and we are excited to share them with others. We encourage this from our children and our adults. We offer ample opportunities to volunteer our time, talent and treasure. And in doing so, we not only minister to the parish members of Sacred Hearts and build a sense of community, but we grow in our person relationship to Jesus Christ.
We look forward to sharing with you.
