Stewardship and Development Thoughts from Judy Held
President, Catholic Foundation of Eastern Montana
Stewardship Thought: “Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in
God.” – 1 JOHN 4:15
How strong is your faith? When you have an opportunity to either defend or clarify a question about our
Catholic faith, do you do it? Or, do you remain silent so that others don’t think you are weird? Pray for
the courage to be strong in all circumstances and to share your witness with others.
2018 Care and Share Annual Catholic Appeal
If you have already given to the 2018 Care and Share Annual Catholic
Appeal, thank you! If you are still praying about your gift this year or just
haven’t yet returned your gift to our parish, please know that the support of every Catholic household is
important and needed. No gift is too large or too small! The outcome of our support determines the
amount of ministry that our Church can offer each year to help parishes and Catholics throughout our very
large diocese. It takes funding to build and grow our Catholic Church, not just to maintain it. There is no
better investment than in our Lord! Your gift will help our parish meet our goal for 2018. Thank you very
much for your support of Care and Share!
