Stewardship at St. Theresa Parish
A total-stewardship parish is ALIVE!
It is a prayerful, welcoming, Eucharistic-centered community with a common vision: God is the source of All. Its members are committed to furthering the word and work of Christ by caring for each other and all of God’s creation. In gratitude, they faithfully give back a portion of their God-given gifts of time, talent and treasure.
(From: Stewardship: A Parish Handbook, by C. Justin Clements, 2000.)
There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit; there are different forms of service but the same Lord; there are different workings but the same God who produces all of them in everyone. To each individual the manifestation of the Spirit is given for some benefit. To one is given through the Spirit the expression of wisdom; to another the expression of knowledge according to the same Spirit; to another faith by the same Spirit; to another discernment of spirits; to another variety of tongues; to another interpretation of tongues. But one and the same Spirit produces all of these, distributing them individually to each person as he wishes.
(1 Corinthians 12:4-11)
