STEWARDSHIP ... is what I do after I say I believe
Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundations of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me, naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me. Matthew 25:34-36 Stewardship is opening our hearts, time, and hands to others. It means being available to others, willing to listen, and sharing our blessings in justice and love. In doing this, we serve Jesus Christ, our Lord and King. .
