Fuel'd by Service

"Preach the Gospel always, and when necessary use words".

~St. Francis of Assisi

 

“Living out the Gospel value of stewardship as a disciple means sharing your time, talents, and treasures. Why? Because everything you have to share is from God, and it is all meant for sharing. Being a disciple means sharing without counting the cost. Being a disciple means sharing even when we least feel like it, when we least can afford to do it, and when the person in need of our gift is the last person we wish to serve!”

~From Stewardship and Teenagers:  The Challenge of Being a Disciple published by the US Conference of Catholic Bishops.

Visiting the Homebound

Talk to your parish secretary to find out if there are Catholic parishioners that are homebound or living in nursing homes.  Go visit!  Play cards!  Read letters, help write letters.  These “children of God” can often have a very limited life and very few people to talk to.  By sharing your time with them you are sharing your love and making a tremendous difference in their life!

 

 

 

 

Parish Ministry

Check with your parish to get involved!  Each parish has age limits for certain ministries but find out what they are and get involved!  (Lectors, Extraordinary Ministers of Communion, Musicians)

 

SHARE YOUR TIME, TALENT AND TREASURE AND LIVE THE GOSPEL!

PUT YOUR FAITH INTO ACTION!
