There are so many opportunities which don't take much more than just some of your time. Many of the ministries are ministries of service or of being present. For those ministries that do need a little training, the coordinators are happy to help you get the hang of the ropes in any area you are looking to invest your time. If each person gave just 1 hour a month, we'd have over 1500 hours of dedication. Imagine the Kingdom then.

What interests you? How can you live out your faith in a concrete way? How can you build up the Body of Christ in the world today?

God has blessed each and everyone of us with so many talents. Some are highly academic; others highly compassionate. Some are highly technical; others highly applicable. Whatever God has given you, see if you can apply that to the mission of the Church to seek the salvation of all souls. Building up the Church may be as intangible as counseling or as tangible as putting up drywall.

Don't let a talent go to waste; invest it in the mission.

Of the many blessings that God has showered upon you, have you been thankful and returned to Him with a grateful heart? It can certainly be a challenge in a world driven by commercialism and capitalism, seeking the ever new and ever greater products. We certainly need money to live and thrive in the world today. Jesus reminds us: "where your treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Mt. 6:21). Giving from what we have received to the Lord fosters gratitude in the heart and charity in our actions.

Maybe last year, you were a 1%er. This year, aim for 1.5%er. Next year, see if you can make it to 2%. Very few can go from 1% to 10% overnight. Move your heart towards a fuller expression of generosity with the gifts that God has blessed you.
​
Note: if every parishioner were a 10%er, we would never have to do a building campaign, we could have a Catholic school here, and all special collections could be automatically given a large support without re-passing the basket.
