Our students are still “caring” and “sharing”.  This year, all students have been challenged to achieve the Presidential Service Award by completing 50 hours of community service this year.  With only 3 weeks left, some students are looking for opportunities to finish their challenge.  If you or your organization is in need of some extra help, please contact Gina Gerken (363-6358 or ggerken22@gmail.com) to discuss possible ways our students could help.

Stewardship Campaign Updates

We are on track to recieve a record number of commitment cards this year.  Thank you so much for your faithful commitment to our parish!

 


Stewardship Education:

Everyone has a different story about why they are called to be a Christian steward... click on the links below to read a few from our parishioners.

"That does not sound like you."

"It's just what we do for family."

"It started with a valentine."

"God is the main Head Coach."

"Experience that awesome feeling that comes with being part of something bigger than ourselve.s"

"It is not an obligation to us. It is a privilege."

"How shall we make a return to the Lord for all the good He has done for us?"

"God prepared this house for us."

“How wonderful it is that nobody need wait single moment before starting to change the world.”

"A Volleyball Match, a Pocket Knife and a T-shirt."


Click here to hear the keynote address from the 2011 Region IX Stewardship Conference. Father Jim Golka (Pastor,St. Patrick Church, Diocese of Grand Island, Nebraska) gives an humorous, inspirational and thought-provoking perspective on stewardship. Enjoy!
