As each one has received a gift, use it to serve one another as good stewards of God’s varied grace. 1 Peter 4:10

At the Deanery level, all of the parishes have been asked to establish three positive goals to work toward. On October 24, 2007, our Pastoral Council determined to develop stewardship:

Stewardship Development

• Practice hospitality to increase attendance at Mass and reception of the Holy Sacraments;
• Steadily increase community prayer with the number of active faith sharing groups;
• Place a greater importance on Catholic Faith Formation; thereby, increasing enrollment in our Catholic Education System.
