Stewardship -
Stewardship is a broad, encompassing teaching, emphasizing that everything we are and everything we have, all of creation, our church, our own vocation, global resources and personal resources, our talents and even our time, comes as gifts freely and lovingly given by God. Stewardship is an aspect of discipleship, an answer to a person call from Jesus to a collaboration with God. Stewardship is our duty, but we also express our gratitude, our joy, our hope when we share of our God given gifts.
