We are a new committee, with new energy committed to a very old ministry!
At the March 2010 Executive Council meeting of our diocese, a motion was passed to set up a Stewardship Committee. As outlined in the Diocesan Goals and confirmed by a task force report, the Diocese of Moosonee is prepared to focus time, talent and money on Stewardship Ministry.
The committee will consist of individuals from each deanery and three parishes from each deanery who will work and partner together to support, mentor and educate all parishes in the diocese. This will be done at the invitation of the parishes and deaneries through facilitating workshops or parish visitations, by sharing resources on-line and through a diocesan library and by building personal relationships within our Christian Community.
As we grow in our understanding that Stewardship Ministry is about how we respond to all the blessings and gifts that God has given us, we will realize that practicing responsible stewardship becomes a lifestyle that is lived out as we travel on our faith journey. Stewardship is Evangelism; Stewardship is Mission; Stewardship is how we live and tell the Gospel. Are you surprised by these descriptions? If you want more information on how your parish can get involved, contact the Diocese office or Chair of the Stewardship Committee, Patricia Dorland at pdorland@puc.net.
