Ministry of Stewardship:

"... as a matter of equality, your abundance at the present time should supply their needs..."
(2 Corinthians 8:13-14)

Do you ever wonder why God has been so good to you? St. Paul provides us with an answer. We are called to share our abundance. God has entrusted blessings to us so that we in turn can share with others. Sharing in this way can be a joyful and rewarding experience since we see our giving as part of God's great plan.
