What does it mean to live the Stewardship way of life?
The Stewardship way of life is a biblically based Catholic spirituality. Living each day as a good steward means answering our own personal call from Jesus Christ to be his disciple; following his example of loving service to others. In their Pastoral Letter “Stewardship: A Disciples Response”, the American Bishops describe a Christian steward as: “One who receives God’s gifts gratefully, cherishes and tends them in a responsible and accountable manner, shares them in justice and love with others, and returns them with increase to the Lord.” Gifts from God are not meant to be hoarded or kept only for our own use, but to be shared with others so everyone has a share in God’s abundant graces.
