On StewardshipStewardship is a grateful response to God's love. Based in Scripture all that we are and all that we have flows from God as a gift. In turn, we serve as stewards of our spiritual and material gifts and we share this gift in love of God and our neighbor.
As disciples of the Lord, we recognize the Lord our God as the source of all blessings and are called to prayerfully consider a proper return to Him in our giving.

"Just One" Stewardship
In one way or another, we have all been blessed. Will you share your blessings? Will you give of yourself to God's kingdom through your actions — your time, talent, and treasures — to your parish? Can you give "just one": through a ministry or a special project? one hour per week? one hour per month? one more dollar per week in your envelope? Here, in your parish, your "just one" does truly make a difference!

The links to the documents and guideline offered here provide insight into the vision for parishes in the Diocese of Pittsburgh in its look toward the future.
