There’s no better investment than one made in your local parish,
where people meet Jesus and lives are changed. 
Stewardship is faith-based giving.

Based on the spiritual principles of the Old Testament and the teachings of Jesus, stewardship is a way of life. "All must give as they are able, according to the blessings given to them by the Lord Your God." (Deuteronomy 16:17)  Through stewardship, we give back to our parish community and say to those in need among us: you are brother and sister to us; you matter and we care. Both givers’ and receivers’ lives are changed through stewardship.

May our lives reflect the generosity and love of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
