“GIVING FEELS GOOD. SACRIFICING DOES NOT!
Don’t confuse the two. One represents lack . . . The other represents abundance . . . Sacrifice will eventually lead to resentment . . . Giving from a full heart does not”
(Byrne, 2006, p. 108).
2025 Campaign “WALK IN LOVE”
“Like good stewards of the manifold grace of God, serve one another with whatever gift each of you has received.” – 1 Peter 4:10
STEWARDSHIP is an attitude, a daily endeavor, a way of life through the commitment of your TIME, TALENT, and TREASURE. We encourage you to review your 2025 Stewardship information. There are always opportunities to join our ministries and committees.
Stewardship is . . . Everything you do after you say, “I believe.”

Jesus said,
“Where your treasure is there is where your heart will also be.” We support what we value with our time, talent, and treasure.
Our wonderful church is a place of worship, learning, caring, and fellowship. Investing your time, talent, and treasure in God’s work here draws each of us deeper into the life of the ministries and committees of our parish.
STEWARDSHIP PRAYER
O God, I resolve to put you first in my life. I recognize that You have blessed me with all that I have and all that I am. As your steward, I resolve to sacrifice when necessary but always to do so out of a spirit of sincere love, just as your Son, Jesus, did for me. I humbly accept the challenge to share from my means rather than from my excess. I recognize that being a good steward is nothing more than being truly Christian.
Dear God, I resolve, to be generous with my time and talent using the gifts that I have been given. I commit myself to taking care of my body and all of creation. I know there will be times when I fail to be a good steward, but I commit to keep trying. I will confidently live each day with a spirit of True Peace and Joy in knowing that I am doing your will. Amen
