Stewardship Calling “If anyone wishes to be first, he shall be the last of all and the
servant of all.” (MARK 9:35) Jesus teaches us that we are called in Stewardship to serve one another. Sacrifice is not a word that many people like to hear. We think it means that we must give up something that we want. However, the literal meaning of sacrifice is “to make holy,” from the words “sacer” = sacred and “facere” = to make. In other words, we make our lives holy by sharing our gifts in the service of God.

In our Gospel for this week, Jesus reminds us of the dignity of all human persons in the midst of an emotionally challenging topic. As we move through this week, may we try to be better grounded in our identity as one who is created in the image and likeness of a loving God. Moreover, may we guide our children and grandchildren in the basics of human dignity. Help them to think about what makes them personally unique in how God created them. Sometimes, children feel unloved. Today’s gospel shows children and adults alike that we are loved by Jesus.

CAMPAIGN FOR THE CATHOLIC COMMUNITY OF SOUTH JERSEY
camdendiocese.org
OUR PLAN
The Catholic Community of South Jersey has evolved tremendously over the course of its 80 year existence. Now, the time has come for this generation of Catholics to contribute to the great history of our diocese. We must invest in evangelization programs, lay faith formation, and professional development for parish staff and ministers.
As vital and active members of the Diocese of Camden wishing to make our contribution, we are beginning the Catholic Strong Campaign to provide the resources needed to ensure our parishes are financially stable, strengthen Catholic education, expand our outreach capabilities, and enhance our evangelization efforts. A successful campaign will ensure the vitality of our faith communities and ultimately meet the evolving needs of our Diocese.
Every parish will share in these efforts with an allocated goal. Our parish target is to raise a minimum of $1,245,000, of which we will receive 70% of the collected amount (or a minimum of $871,500) that will go toward parish needs. Additionally, we will receive 80% of all funds collected over our parish target. We will also include our 2018 House of Charity target ($144,446) in the overall total. Therefore, our total parish target is $1,389,446. We will use our share of funds to address the following needs:
Assumption Church
146 S. Pitney Road
Galloway, NJ
St. Nicholas Church
