STEWARDSHIP COMMITMENT WEEKEND Commitment weekend is this weekend. Please bring along your Time & Talent Renewal Sheet and your Informational sheet with you to Mass and place them in the collection basket. If you forget, you can also mail them to the parish or put them in next weekend’s offertory or bring them to the Parish Office. We would like to have them back to the parish as soon as possible, so schedules can be created and mailed to parishioners. (If you did not have a chance to pick up your Stewardship packet you can pick them up at the Parish Office.) Thank you for your Stewardship to the Parish and our Community! True charity requires courage: let us overcome the fear of getting our hands dirty so as to help others in need. (Pope Francis tweeted 9/21/13) Am I fearlessly generous in service? How will I get my hands dirty for others this week?
