Worthy of special respect and praise in the Church are the laity, single or married, who, in a definitive way or for a period, put their person and their professional competence at the service of institutions and their activities" (Decree on the Apostolate of Lay People, Chapter IV, #22)
Stewardship is a complete lifestyle, a life of total accountability and responsibility acknowledging God as Creator and Owner of all. Stewardship is responsible management of our God-given resources of time, talent, and treasure. It enhances our relationships with God and one another. Stewardship is living out a commitment to be Christ-centered rather than self-centered and involves a conversion of the heart. Stewardship is a lifelong journey with each person at a different place on the path.
The Stewardship of Treasure invites us to see our financial resources as gifts from God and asks us to make a response based on our being grateful. The more we are aware of being blessed, the more we want to express our gratitude. This is the heart of stewardship.
There are many opportunities available to members of Christ the King Catholic Church to participate in our ongoing stewardship program. Use our website to browse through the many ministries and help you in selecting programs and activities in which you may wish to give of your "Time and Talent". The work of our parish commissions and service organizations has been described in our site under their separate links. There you will find many volunteer opportunities available within these commissions and organizations.
After you have had an opportunity to review these programs and activities, please contact the staff representative for each program in which you would like to participate. The chairperson of the commission or organization will contact you if your time or talents are required.
Christ the King Parish is very fortunate to have a great number of programs and activities which enhance the spiritual and temporal well being of our parish and our community. We ask you to consider giving a portion of your "Time, Talent and Treasure" to your church and community.
