Stewardship of Time, Talent and Treasure

 

Stewardship of Talent

Stewardship has its beginning in baptism. Our baptism as one of Christ’s disciples calls us to share our gifts — including our talents.  By giving of our talents, we can support our parish’s efforts to carry out the mission Christ gave us. 

Pillar of Service

Members of a stewardship parish minister to the varied needs of their own parish as well as the needs of the wider community and Church.  Like members of a family come together to help one another, a stewardship parish serves those who are hurting or in need, doubting or seeking salvation.

The parish family stands ready and eager to collectively wrap its arms around their brothers and sisters when they suffer and/or when they celebrate special events in their lives.   “God so constructed the body, that there may be no dissension in the body, but that all the members may be concerned for one another.  If one member suffers, all the members suffer with it:   if one member is honored, all the members share its job.” (1Cor.12:24b,25-26)

Members of the parish seek the community to serve and to be served – to give and to receive, not only within their parish but to give beyond their own boundaries.  They have a need to serve and to give to the greater community. 

This pillar of service is an opportunity for the parish to put into practice the other three pillars:  hospitality, prayer and formation.
