My Personal Commitment of Gifts/Talents for the Coming Year

 

“ God is able to make every grace abundant for you, so that in all things, always having all you need, you may have an abundance for every good work.”

2 Corinthians, 9:8

 

There are many opportunities for each of us to share our gifts with others, not only in service to the parish but also in our homes, our community and our world. Please discuss and coordinate with family members how you would like to use your time and talent to benefit the parish community.

Each family member should complete a separate form.

Please review the Parish Ministry Directory for descriptions of each opportunity listed below. Areas where people are especially needed are underlined.
