Stewardship Committee
Stewardship Mission: As God's children, we are each uniquely gifted. We are called by baptism to nuture and share these gifts. Our response to the call is achieved by embracing a life of stewardship. The mission of the Stewardship Committee is to call the members of our faith community to:

  • Discover and acknowledge their gifts
  • Provide educational opportunities to promote sharing of gifts
  • Encourage participation in ministry and financial support


  • We envision Holy Family as a vibrant parish whose commitment to stewardship calls us to involvement in our local community, the universal church and all of God's creation.
