Stewardship of treasure involves reflecting on our financial resources and making a decision to give a portion of what we have received for the work of the parish, the diocese and other charities. We are asked to give from our abundance, in the biblical sense to make a sacrificial gift from the “first fruits of our labor” rather than from what is leftover after our needs our met. Such a gift is an act of faith that can strengthen our understanding that God provides for all our needs.
Parish Stewardship of Treasure, Annual Catholic Appeal, Called to Serve as Christ Campaign... What’s the Difference?
The Parish Stewardship of Treasure Commitment Renewal is what funds the day to day operations of St. Louise Parish. Parish operations includes: staff compensations, Sacramental programs, liturgical ministries, faith formation programs, all campus buildings repairs and maintenance, utilities, etc.,. The Parish Stewardship of Treasure Commitment Renewal is done annually. Pledge is January to December and all donations are processed through the parish.
The Archdiocesan Annual Catholic Appeal provide annual operating support to our important ministries, offices and programs throughout the Archdiocese of Seattle. The Annual Catholic Appeal pledge to the Archdiocese is May to April and all donations are processed through the Archdiocese of Seattle.
The Called to Serve as Christ Campaign is an extraordinary opportunity for all to play a role in strengthening the Catholic Church in Western Washington. This campaign will focus on raising $100 million to strengthen our priest pension and retirement medical plans, provide support to women religious serving or who have served in the Archdiocese of Seattle, and assist key efforts in our parishes. Parishioners will be asked to consider making a gift above and beyond their existing support for their Parish Stewardship of Treasure and the Annual Catholic Appeal.
