Stewardship 2023

Stewardship As A Way Of Life

Stewardship is our Time, Talent and Treasure returned to God in thanksgiving for all that He has given us.

Church of the Ascension is a vibrant Catholic community that embraces Stewardship as a Way of Life. A life of Stewardship is rooted in Scripture and is a disciple’s response to the mission and ministry of the local and universal Church in sharing the Gospel. Stewardship recognizes that we, as individuals, are not the owners of our lives, our time, our talent, nor our treasure, but stewards or managers of these God-given gifts.

Faith Lived… Blessings Shared
