Stewardship

What is Stewardship?

Stewardship is the intentional, grateful and loving response of a Christian disciple - a way of life that recognizes, receives and shares God's gifts for the good of all, making Jesus Christ known and loved.

​Being stewards of the faith is recognizing that we own nothing, that we are simply caretakers (stewards) of all that God has entrusted to us.

The Greatest Gift
​​Essentially, stewardship is faithfully using your time, talent and treasure to bring others to Christ.

Jesus Christ is God’s greatest gift to us. Stewardship tells us to share a portion of our time, talent and treasure so that God’s Gift, Jesus Christ, may be given to those who do not know Him.​​

Parish Stewardship

Our parish Stewardship Committee is tasked with organizing the Parish Census to ensure all of our parishioner's information is up to date. They also update you on our latest report from the Bishop's Faith Appeal. Our parish's latest figures are below.

Bishop's Faith Appeal

This year's Bishop's Faith Appeal theme comes from the letter of Saint Paul to the Romans, "For those who love God, all things work together for the good." Imagine a community where no one goes hungry, where all feel welcomed, where those who mourn are comforted and where those who are lost learn of the healing love of Jesus. This kind of community is established when we work together for the good.


Our diocesan ministries are doing God's work in our communities.

By giving to the Bishop's Faith Appeal, you can do what Jesus asks and express your love for your brothers and sisters through support of diocesan ministries and Catholic Charities of Southeast Texas. Your prayer pledge and your financial gift will spread Jesus’ love and create a Church community where all are included and diversity is celebrated. Our Apostleship of the Sea provides for the spiritual needs of those who enter our ports from places as far away as the Philippines and India. Our Multicultural Ministry responds to the various cultures that call our Diocese their home.


Open your heart and do as He says.
