Stewardship flows out of gratitude for God’s mercy and is the way we extend that mercy to others. In other words, stewardship is our “Response to God’s Mercy.”

We all make time for what’s most important! Our annual stewardship renewal gives us the opportunity to reflect upon whether Christ is truly at the center of our lives. In fact, the best way to show how thankful we are for God’s mercy is by giving God our worship and thanks at Mass each Sunday and Holy Day. Please renew your dedication to daily prayer and also to family prayer, especially by praying the rosary or chaplet of Divine Mercy.

God’s mercy flows to others when we share our talents. So many of our parishioners live out the corporal and spiritual works of mercy through their involvement with our parish ministries. Please take time to review the over 70 different and vibrant ministries in the parish and the many ways you can share your talents.

We spend our money on what’s most important to us. Your financial offering to the parish helps to spread the Good News of God’s Mercy. As a guidepost we ask each parishioner to consider a 5% gift of their income to the parish. Also, each year we ask that parishioners consider a modest increase in their giving to offset the annual cost of living. Each year expenses rise such as utilities, the cost of maintenance on our buildings, and health insurance premiums. The greater the generosity and the greater the sacrifice, the greater the joy.
The Servant Leader Award was presented to Lisa Matthews in appreciation for her work in decorating the church with gorgeous floral arrangements and leading a team of volunteers that keep the St. Michael parish so beautiful!
