STEWARDSHIP OF TREASURE RENEWAL 2023

Thanks to 143 families who have already returned your Parish Stewardship commitment card. We expect everyone else as members of our parish to prayerfully evaluate your giving to the parish and community and after praying, fill out your commitment card and return it.

We expect to receive the responses from all of 560 registered families of our parish as we want to reach 100% of participation in the sacrificial giving renewal this year. If you have a circumstance that prevents you from committing money this year, you are still a valued member of this church and we urge you to return your commitment card with the word "I will say a prayer for the parish" on it.  Thank you.

You have the option of returning the Stewardship of Treasure Commitment Card by mail, collection basket, or by pledging online at Sacrificial Giving Renewal Form
