Stewardship Sunday: September 19th

Cardinal Thomas Collins has instituted Stewardship Sunday as an annual occurrence across the entire Archdiocese on the 25th Sunday of Ordinary Time. This year Stewardship Sunday will be on Sunday, September 19, 2021.

A steward is a servant entrusted for a time with the goods of the Master. The steward uses but does not own these goods and must eventually give an account to the Master for the way in which they have been cared for and made fruitful.” ~ Cardinal Thomas Collins 

STEWARDSHIP PRAYER

Loving God, I come to you in thanksgiving, knowing that all I am and all that I have is a gift from you. In faith and love, help me to do your will. I am listening, Lord God. Speak your words into the depth of my soul, that I may hear you clearly. I offer to you this day all the facets of my life, whether it be at home, at work, or at school— to be patient, to be merciful, to be generous, to be holy. Give me the wisdom and insight to understand your will for me and the fervour to fulfill my good intentions. I offer my gifts of time, talent, and possessions to you as a true act of faith, to reflect my love for you and my neighbour. Help me to reach out to others as you, my God, have reached out to me. Amen.
