ST. VINCENT de PAUL Highlights of Our 2021 Stewardship Renewal

E

arlier this year, our parish leadership at St. Vincent de Paul conducted the 2021 Stewardship Renewal. The Stewardship Renewal gave our parish community the opportunity to discern how we are using our gifts of time, talent and treasure in service to the parish and in return to God. This month, we are happy to share with you some of the highlights of the 2021 Stewardship Renewal. • • • •

There were 310 commitment cards received from 26 percent of active households. There were 2,552 prayer commitments — the stewardship of time — from 92 percent of participating households. There were 1,006 ministry commitments — the stewardship of talent — from 79 percent of participating households. Of these, 108 were new ministry commitments, while 898 were re-commitments to parish ministries. There were 259 offertory commitments — the stewardship of treasure — from 84 percent of participating households. The average pledge was $2,986.

We thank all those who participated in our 2021 Stewardship Renewal. If you did not have the opportunity to fill out and return a commitment card, we invite you to consider the ways you may share your gifts of time, talent and treasure with God and the parish community!
