Stewardship of
Our Treasures, Our Soul and Our Prayers
To Be a Christian Steward
A Summary of the U.S. Bishops' Pastoral
Letter on Stewardship
What identifies a steward? Safeguarding
material and human resources and using them
responsibly are one answer; so is generous
giving of time, talent, and treasure. But being a
Christian steward means more. As Christian
stewards, we receive God's gifts gratefully,
cultivate them responsibly, share them lovingly
in justice with others, and return them with
increase to the Lord.
"As each one has received a gift, use it to serve one another
as good stewards of God's varied grace" (1 Pt 4:10).

to share due to our common heritage.
But Palm Sunday is also known as Passion Sunday, because we
hear an account of the passion of Jesus Christ during the liturgy. Most
churches also share this reading in common. Many Catholic parishes use multiple lectors to
proclaim the Gospel, while it is not uncommon for a similar reading or even a performance
in many mainstream Protestant churches.
The commonality found in the worship on this particular Sunday seems to highlight
the fundamental truth in the observance: Jesus Christ died for everyone. He did not die on a cross for just Catholics, or just
Orthodox, or just Protestants. Whether one acknowledges it or not, he was crucified for all those who are born of man.
Today, we rejoice not just for what he has done for us but also for what he has done for all of creation.
Baptisms For more information parents and/or godparents are encouraged to contact the front office
at 941-752-6770 four months in advance of receiving the sacrament.
The Sacrament of Reconciliation (Confession) is offered twice on Fridays at 8:30AM until all are heard
and again from 5PM-6PM, and again on Saturday morning’s at 8:30AM. You can also call
941-752-6770 and make a specific appointment to receive the sacrament.
Eucharist is celebrated daily for those in full communion with the Church. If you are homebound and
would like someone to bring you the Eucharist, please call Pat Martino at the Parish Office
941-752-6770. Children who wish to be prepared to receive their first communion are prepared
through the faith formation classes beginning each fall. It is a two year program starting in
first grade. For information contact Spence McSorley, 941-752-6770
Confirmation is the sacrament that completes initiation into the Church. In this sacrament the
confirmed is enriched for a life of discipleship by the gift of the Holy Spirit conferred by the laying on
of hands and anointing with chrism by the Bishop. Baptized adults who have not received this
sacrament can register for Adult Confirmation preparation classes. For youth, it is a two year program
beginning in ninth grade. For information about either program, contact Spence McSorley
941-752-6770 or [email protected]
Anointing of the sick (formerly known as the Last Rites) is celebrated when someone is seriously ill or
before major surgical procedures. If you or a loved one would like to receive this sacrament please
call the Parish Office at 941-752-6770.
The Sacrament of Marriage is celebrated throughout the year. For more information please contact the
office a minimum of six months in advance of your desired date. Requirements for the sacrament

The Fourth Cup – Dr. Scott Hahn
Well-known Catholic theologian Dr. Scott Hahn explains Christ's Paschal Sacrifice
on the cross as the fulfillment of the traditional fourth cup used in the celebration
of the Jewish Passover meal. He draws a symbolic parallel to the Last Supper and
Christ's death on Calvary. Through his scholarly insights and important biblical
connections, Mass will come alive for you as never before!
We now have a deeper understanding of the institution of the Eucharist and its deeply-rooted nature in the Passover.

For our campaign to be
successful, your gift should be
an expression of your gratitude
to God for all you have been
gifted with. We ask that
parishioners prayerfully reflect
upon their ability to give of their
substance, not their excess.
We cannot emphasize enough
the concept of “Equal
Sacrifice, Not Equal Giving.”
This means that not everybody
can make the same size gift, but
they can make the same size
sacrifice through prayer,
consideration, and reflection.
HOW TO GET INVOLVED—Join a Ministry
When we serve the Lord and His Church we are greatly blessed; not only with what is needed in our ministry, but also personally in a way that nourishes and sustains us. This is the entire point of the beatitudes; we are nothing short of blessed by
Him, when we live for the Kingdom of God. So consider serving as a volunteer less as an obligation or duty and more as a
gateway to our Lord’s abundant graces. Below is a contact list for all of the activities, events and ministries that are available to
our Parishioners. Please contact them to find out when or where the next meeting will be or how you can become involved in
your church.
