STEWARDSHIP PRAYER
God our Father,
You are the source of life and every blessing.
All that we have comes from You.
Help us to walk in your ways as faithful disciples of Jesus.
As good stewards of your many blessings teach us to
receive your gifts gratefully,
cultivate them responsibly,
share them in justice and love with others,
and return them with increase to You, our Father.
We ask this through Christ our Lord,
Who came that we might have life, and have it abundantly.
Amen
