We each have different gifts to offer the church. Parishioners are asked to prayerfully discern how they will offer their time and treasure, with the confidence
that “the Lord will not be outdone in His generosity” (St. Teresa of Avila).
“We are in the time of action-the time in which to put to use the gifts of God not for ourselves, but for Him, for the Church, for others, the time during which always to try to increase the good in the world....It is important not to close in upon oneself, burying one's talent, one’s own spiritual, intellectual, material riches, everything that the Lord has given us, but to open oneself, to be in solidarity, to be attentive to the other.”
Pope Francis
