Time, Talent and Treasure |
|
What is Stewardship? it is a conversation of the heart and a reordering of life's priorities to put God first. Stewardship is a way of living each day that challenges members of the Church community to give freely and generously of their time, talent and treasure. it is one's response to God, living each day in the reality that everything we have is a gift from God and expressing our gratitude to God for His gift. it is proactive and a long-term spiritual response. Stewardship is an enhancement to personal growth. Where your heart is, so your treasure will be.
To paraphrase the Book of John, Chapter 15: "I am the vine, you are the branches. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask for whatever you want and it will be done for you. Remain in love ... It was not you who chose me, but I who chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit that will remain, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name he may give to you." Jesus has told us to "bear fruit", it will be our way of life, it is Stewardship. |

Accomplishing St. Anastasia's mission to be a positive force for spiritual growth in the community requires the daily efforts of our priests, deacons, volunteers, professional staff, teachers and lay ministers. Your help, both financially and through the gift of your time and prayers, make all things possible. Financial gifts are greatly appreciated. Please consider some of the ways that you can support St. Anastasia.
Bequeaths
We owe our very existence to the generosity of those who came before us, who founded St. Anastasia and built the facilities that we use today. These same people left lasting gifts in the forms of bequeaths in the name of St. Anastasia Parish. The impact of such gifts last well beyond our lifetimes. Bequeaths help the work of our ministries continue to impact the lives of countless people for generations to come.
Annual Appeal
The St. Anastasia Annual Appeal provides important financial support to the parish and it's most-important ministry, St. Anastasia Catholic School. For over 75 years, generation after generation, St. Anastasia has played a vital role in helping families raise educated, moral children ready to assume roles of leadership within the community. Your gift to the Annual Appeal helps ensures that the benefits of a catholic education are available for future generations.
Alumni Support

Gifts to specific ministries
