Stewardship Thoughts from Judy Held

President, Catholic Foundation of Eastern Montana
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:3
This one confuses people. Replace the word humble for poor and it makes more sense. People that
are humble recognize their dependence on God and trust that He will provide all that they need.
Unfortunately, for many of us, pride and ego enters our lives and we think we can live without God.
Remember God first in all circumstances.

A very simple, yet generous, way to share your gift of treasure with our parish or diocese (without writing
a check at all) is to name our church the owner and/or beneficiary of an existing life insurance policy you
have which your beneficiaries no longer need. In addition, a gift of a paid-up policy would likely qualify
you for the 40% Montana Endowment Tax Credit. To learn more, please contact Judy at the Catholic
Foundation of Eastern Montana at (406) 727-6683, ext. 120 or judy@catholicfoundationmt.org.
