STEWARDSHIP - A WAY OF LIVING

Stewardship Prayer for May

Heavenly Father,  Your Son ascended in great triumph to sit at your right hand. You sent your Spirit to watch over us, guide us and teach us to be better stewards of your abundant gifts.  May this Spirit of wisdom make us better stewards of our planet. May your Spirit increase our awareness of the dignity of every human life, and show us the way to be better stewards of our neighbor. And through your Spirit, may we be inspired every day to live in accordance with the Gospel, and to give witness to our risen Lord.We ask this through Jesus Christ, Your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God forever and ever.  Amen.

 
(From: International Catholic Stewardship Council on CATHOLIC STEWARDSHIP)

May Dinner Night Outs


We have been partnering with local restaurants to raise funds and have been succesful in getting them to either increase the per cent earned or expanded the hours to include the whole day given that we are the largest Catholic Parish in Elk Grove.  The Dinner Night Outs are advertised in the CLOW section of the bulletin but in order for GSCC to get credit for the sale, the flyers need to be attached to the receipt..  Flyers are available in the Narthex, the Parish office as well here on the Website.  Click on the "read more" below to
