MISSION OF THE COUNCIL The mission of the Pastoral Stewardship
Council is to promote and foster Christian stewardship in our
homes, in our parish, and in our community. To fulfill our mission
we provide resources for worship, prayer, education,
administration, outreach, and witness. The Stewardship Council,
which will function as a Pastoral Council might, assesses and
responds to stewardship needs within the parish. We respond to the
identified needs by organizing ministries that meet these needs,
coordinating the workings of said ministries, groups, and
committees within the parish, and providing leadership to set the
direction for future stewardship activities. Individually members
of the Council participate by serving on other committees, Parish
Ministries, and sub- committees. The Stewardship Council seeks to
infuse the theology and practice of stewardship into the life of
the parish and assist members of St. Bernadette to recognize that
all that we have is pure gift from God. The Stewardship Council
works to inform parishioners of the many opportunities to use their
giftedness to build up the kingdom of God by sharing their time,
talent, and treasure. The Stewardship Council further seeks to
instill a sense of hospitality, spirituality, and accountability in
parish members through recommitment, outreach, and prayer.
