Twenty-Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time
"None of us lives for oneself, and no one dies for oneself. For if we live for the Lord, and if we die, we die for the Lord; so then, whether we live or die, we are the Lord's." Romans 14:7-8

The message is clear; we belong to God alone. All that a steward does is therefore done for the Lord. Whenever we assist others, we are God's own messenger, bringing His presence to those we serve.

Have a safe, blessed and healthy week

"The Commandments ... are summed up in this saying, namely, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'" Romans 13:9

The challenge of a steward is summed up in the simple question, "what have I done for my neighbor?"

Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time
"Do not conform yourselves to this age, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and pleasing and perfect." Romans 12:2

The bishops in their pastoral letter on stewardship warn us about conforming to the destructive "isms" at work, in our culture -- materialism, individualism, and consumerism. Stewardship calls us to generously share what we have with others. Stewardship focuses on our dependence on God. This focus goes against our culture's focus on independence and individualism.
Have a safe, blessed and healthy week

Isaiah 22:19-23
Romans 11:33-36
Matthew 16:13-20
Prayer Intention for the Week:
Bless our catechists with wisdom, patience, and joy. Fill them with Your spirit, that their words and actions may lead others to Christ.
Twenty-First Sunday in Ordinary Time:
"Who do people say that the Son of Man is?" Matthew 16:13

The answers the disciples gave to Jesus' question varied because they recognized some of the attributes of individual prophets in Jesus. Peter saw what the Messiah was supposed to be because Jesus reflected who He was. A steward reflects generosity and this is immediately recognizable to all that he meets.

Have a safe, blessed and healthy week

Twentieth Sunday in Ordinary Time
"Observe what is right, do what is just; for my salvation is about to come, my justice, about to be revealed." Isaiah 56:1
A steward is keenly aware of the need for justice. It is the Lord's justice practiced by a steward that delivers the poor.

Have a safe, blessed and healthy week.
