Service

"I have come, not to be served, but to serve."

Members of a stewardship parish recognize that they also have a need to give beyond their own members only. They have a need to serve and to give in the diocese, the community and universal church. Service, by those of all ages, provides the opportunity to practice hospitality, prayer and formation. Parishioners seek the parish family as a community to serve and to be served-to give and receive.
