Quote for Reflection (Sunday, July 24, 2022)

Stewardship is based on the premise that all that we have and all we are comes from God and as a way to thank God for all His blessings, we return a portion of the time, talent and treasure allotted to us. So, a person’s decision to give of his or her time, talent, and treasure is based on a need to give thanks. For example, in the area of treasure, a person would give the same amount of money whether their parish was $200,000 in debt or had $200,000 saved in the bank because they give back in gratitude to God.
