Stewardship
"Serve one another with whatever gift each of you has received." 1 Peter 4:10
Stewardship is a way of life that acknowledges God as the Source and Owner of all. We are merely caretakers of all God's gifts.
A steward, as the U.S. Bishops wrote in their Pastoral Letter "Stewardship: A Disciple's Response," is someone who . . .
Receives God's gifts gratefully;
Cultivates them responsibly;
Shares them with love and justice; and
Returns them with increase to the Lord.
At St. Louis Catholic Church, we believe that stewardship is not a choice but at the heart of what it means to be a follower of Christ.
Stewardship at St. Louis Catholic Church is expressed in three ways:
In the gifts of our TIME - through regular participation at Mass, personal prayer, spending quiet time listening to God in our hearts, and reading the Scriptures;
In the gifts of our TALENT - sharing the skills and talents God has given each of us with others;
In the gifts of our TREASURE - returning to God a portion (tithe) of our material possessions with our gifts to St. Louis Church and other charities.
