Stewardship Corner ~
As we begin the month of November, I encourage you to come forth and participate in
thanksgiving to God by involving yourself in our community using your talents! Involvement gives
us purpose; it gives us a feeling of belonging! What better way to show thanks to God and to grow
in community than to engage in ministry here in our very own parish! What if this week you took a
look at the ministries listed below and noted two or three that might interest you? Join us at our
Stewardship Social on November 15th and 16th where we will have music, refreshments, and
ministries available to you in the hall!
Peace,
Kaitlyn Wiant
