Stewardship is an increasingly widespread program for enhancing both finances and ministry involvement in Catholic parishes. Called to Be Stewards describes actual detailed examples of adopting a stewardship approach to funding and to ministry. This book explains the roles of the pastor, parish councils, and stewardship committees in establishing and managing a stewardship program, examines how to integrate a stewardship approach into everyday parish life, and tells how to generate broader parishioner support.Through the use of case studies, this book describes how eight Catholic parishes adopt a stewardship methodology and highlights the challenges of implementing stewardship in fundraising. Each chapter offers both pastor and parishioner accounts of stewardship implementation and growth, from parishes just beginning a stewardship program to those with a well established and flourishing program.Chapters in Part I: Beginning Stewardship are 'All of Us Have Gifts and are Called Upon to Use Them: Corpus Christi Parish, Fremont (Historic Niles), California' and 'Caring Enough to Make a Difference: St. Peter Catholic Church, Kirkwood, Missouri.'Chapters in Part II: Stewardship Under Way are, 'So Many Ways You Can Give of Yourself Here: St. Matthews Catholic Church, San Antonio, Texas;' 'We Take Care of the Poor Before We Take Care of Ourselves: St. Marcelline Church, Schaumburg, Illinois;' and 'Stewardship Demands Conversion: Church of St. Gerard Majella, Port Jefferson, New York.'Chapters in Part III: Advanced Stewardship are, 'We Measure the Depth of Our Faith by the Breadth of Our Outreach to Those in Need: Church of St. John the Baptist, Covington, Washington;' 'A Traditional Church with a Modern Message: The Basilica of Mary, Minneapolis, Minnesota;' and 'Cherishing and Fostering the Gifts of All: Diocesan Stewardship ProgramsArchdioceses of St. Louis, Missouri and Seattle, Washington.'
