Stewardship

Ours is a community that strives to be a stewardship parish. As we accept this challenge, we encourage every parishioner to participate in each of the "Three T's:" Time, Talent and Treasure. We see involvement in the Three T's as a return on the many gifts with which God has blessed each of us, and we need such participation to fulfill the vision and mission of the parish. This vision, as stated on the front of our weekly bulletin is, “Together, through the grace of the Holy Spirit, we ‘Live Jesus,’ reaching out, embracing all with compassion, humility and gentleness.”

Time and Talent
We are blessed with many parishioners who willingly share their time and talents for the benefit of all of us and the greater community. Holy Infant has over 50 ministries in which 300+ households of all ages are active.

Talent abounds in our parish; a lot of undiscovered talent, too. Parishioners give of their spiritual, artistic, financial, educational, and other abilities. Our beautiful liturgies which we all enjoy do not just happen; many hours are given to make them meaningful and inspiring. Parish celebrations, too, are the result of efforts by many people who give of their talents for fun, for food, for everyone.  In addition, parishioners give of their time to help keep the parish running smoothly through volunteering in the Parish Center. Others share their time and talent in maintaining the parish property...just as in our own homes, there is always something to be repaired, replaced or renovated! These are just a few of the opportunities available for sharing your time and talent. To find a ministry where you can share your God-given gifts, see Stewardship & Evangelization Opportunities.

Treasure
Much of what happens at Holy Infant requires funds. Volunteers can only do so much, and then the bills need to be paid. Parishioners do, for the most part, honor their fiscal responsibilities to the Church.

We are all aware of the uneven state of the economy and the difficulties it has raised for some parishioners. Just as the economy affects each of us so, too, does it present problems for the financial well-being of the parish. In light of this, we ask that, if you are able, you consider adding to your weekly/monthly contributions to help preserve the financial health of the parish.

Our future as a parish community depends on your financial support for all that we try to accomplish as a faith community. We thank you for your past generosity and look forward to your continued support.

Electronic Funds Transfer
The Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) program facilitates regular contributions to the weekly offertory and other scheduled second collections. EFT provides a simple, time-saving way for your stewardship commitment to be planned and fulfilled on a consistent basis, even when you are away on vacation or for other reasons.

If you are not participating, we ask that you consider enrollment in EFT. Many frequently asked questions are addressed here. For other questions or additional information, please contact the parish bookkeeper.

Thank You!
We understand that you may be able to contribute more in one area of the Three T's than another, and we truly appreciate all gifts that you are able to share.  For additional information on how the Three T's are shared at Holy Infant, please see the annual Time Talent Treasure report.
