St. Matthew Annual Stewardship Renewal
 |
“The community of believers was of one heart and mind and no one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but they had everything in common.” Acts 4:32
A stewardship parish is a community of believers who recognize that they own nothing, that they are simply caretakers, stewards, of all God has entrusted to them. How are you being called to return your gifts of time, talent and treasure to our Lord? To learn more, see St. Matthew Parish Guide to Stewardship and the Stewardship Commitment Form. |

Traveling Crucifix
St. Matthew Parish
would like to invite
your family to participate
in a prayerful activity
designed to support,
to learn about,
and to promote Vocations.
On the second Sunday of each month, a family may volunteer to attend the 9:30A Mass, to pick up and care for the Traveling Crucifix Kit for the following week.
The program is designed to generate family prayer, to learn about the religious life, and to pray, as a family, for vocations to the Church.
On the following Sunday, you are asked to return the Traveling Crucifix and materials included, and your family may, if you wish, bring forward the Offertory Gifts at Holy Mass.
Please contact Liz and Keith White, white.liz@sbcglobal.net or at 398-4872 to arrange a week for your family to participate. !
This special family ministry opportunity is sponsored by the St. Matthew Parish Vocations Committee.
