STEWARDSHIP

ANNUAL REPORT
(2009)

Stewardship

These basic dictionary definitions of ownership and stewardship take on a deeper meaning when they are seen through the eyes of Christian faith. When God is recognized as the true and rightful owner of all creation, then all of us who are God's children take on the spiritual and moral obligations of stewards. We become God's agents - people who care for (but do not own in any exclusive sense) the gifts, talents, and resources we have been given by a gracious God.

Here at Saint Pats we have many opportunities for parents and students to serve on projects and committess that raise awareness, community spirit and funds for Saint Patrick School. If you are interested in joining or finding more information please follow the links below.
