News & Events
The Bishops Annual Appeal 2021
Stewardship as a Way of Life: “Brothers and sisters: I should like you to be free of anxieties.” 1 Corinthians 7:32 How much anxiety do we bring upon ourselves by constantly worrying about not having enough or attaining more things? God won’t necessarily give you everything you want, but He will provide everything you need. Try this: Use the word “pray” instead of the word “worry” in the future. Then pray for things instead of worrying about them.
