Time Talent Treasure

The Stewardship team, which includes the Rector, has worked hard to enhance our parish message of welcoming and spiritual growth. The members have tried to more vigorously integrate the larger notion of stewardship – time, talent and treasure – in our parish. The team’s efforts have been directed to forming a narrative budget, doing a parish survey, holding a visioning day, enhancing parish communication, looking at needs outside the parish, and helping to set goals and objectives -- all the while enlivening the process with occasions of fun, food and entertainment.

Case For Stewardship

2010-03-05T20:21:58-05:00

Simply put, the case for Christian stewardship may be grounded in the words of the opening of the Gospel according to John:

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into being in him was life ... (verses 1-4a)

Thus, everything that we are and everything that we have is of God and belongs to God. We neither own ourselves nor the things that we have. The only legitimate way of being is one of joy and gratitude for the fact that we live; furthermore, for the fact that we are able to fulfill that life through all those things entrusted to us that suffice for our physical, our emotional, our intellectual and our spiritual support and sustenance: in short, for all that makes us uniquely human. All this is given to us in trust.
