Stewardship Council

The Stewardship Council for Sacred Heart Parish was established in June, 2014 with the general responsibility to promote stewardship awareness and the annual stewardship renewal.
Stewardship is defined as the grateful response of a Christian disciple who recognizes and receives God's gifts and shares these gifts in love of God and neighbor.

The four Pillars of Stewardship include Hospitality, Prayer, Formation and Service.

Some of the responsibilities of this Council include:

1. Carry out stewardship renewal on an annual basis.
2. Promote stewardship within the Parish throughout the year.
3. Prepare and maintain a time and talent list
4. When parishioners volunteer, ensure that they are contacted to
become involved.
5. Evaluate the program on an annual basis.

  1. Old Business

 Brenda reviewed the list.

  1. Money has been paid to reserve Camp Pawnee.  David & Kathy Hammeke have the pumpkins.  It was decided at the last meeting to keep things simple.   Will need to post a sign-up sheet for sides and desserts on October 1st and a sign-up sheet to get an estimated head count.  An announcement should also be placed in the October newsletter which Mary K will take care of.  Drinks of tea, water and lemonade will be made in the large Gott coolers.   Paper goods are in the pantry; will need to let Pam know what is taken.  We’ll also need to bring our own toilet paper, paper towels and hand soap to use there.  Mary K will speak with Sheryl about getting Tyson’s contact information to confirm the grill use.  Brenda will order pumpkin decorating supplies in September and Elaine has the glow light sticks.  Kristi suggested that people bring their own s’more fixings as it is hard to prepare for large groups.  May need to delay getting pumpkins from Hammeke’s until after we get an estimated head count.

  2. Ministry Training on 8/21 for all ministries.

  3. Stewardship Day is August 27th in Dodge City.  Breakout sessions – warning signs of suicide; expanding KanCare; how to keep young adults in the church; what young adults look for in Parish Life; supporting families with adult children with disabilities; disaster preparations.  You can register online which includes the noon meal.  Mary K and Sr. Rebecca have registered to go.

     

    New Business

 2016 Stewardship preparation – We will need to review the documents/forms for possible revision.  Will need to add Pastoral Council.
Will need to add PSR Commission to the adult sign-up sheet. 
Might also want to add a PSR Aide
Will need to identify the deadline date for returning the forms.

  1. We reviewed the names generated from last year for the Stewardship speeches; will need to decide next month.

  2. Chairman and Secretary positions were up for election.  Shane moved that the officers remain as is; seconded by Brenda.  Motion was carried.

  3. Mary K shared that she thanked Sheryl for her service on the Stewardship Council.

  4. Fr. Warren provided a history of the Stewardship Council for Shane and Kristi and the reason for the Fall Stewardship gathering at Camp Pawnee.  He asked Mary K if she would make a short speech letting people know why we met.
