The Stewardship Committee

Who are we and what do we do?

Stewardship Committees are long-standing traditions and typically tasked with encouraging parishioners, friends, members and visitors to give to the mission of the church.

Dean's Creation Challenge: Be a Good Steward

Dean's Creation Challenge: Be a Good Steward

“The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it.” - Psalm 24:1 - Thursday, August 29, 2024
