Stewardship Thought: “…whatever you did for one of the least of my brothers, you did for me” – MATTHEW 25:40

Most of us are generous when it’s convenient for us. We are generous when we have the time or the money. But, generosity is the opposite of that. It means giving of one’s time, money, compassion, forgiveness or mercy when it’s not convenient; when it’s not on our schedule, but on the other person’s schedule.

HELP RELIGIOUS COMMUNITIES. “Your generous contribution helps us to care for our retired sisters and enables our younger sisters to continue in active ministry,” writes a religious sister. Your gift to today’s collection for the Retirement Fund for Religious helps provide medications, nursing care, and more for thousands of senior sisters, brothers, and religious order priests. It also helps ensure younger members can continue the good works of their elders!

A Tweet From POPE FRANCIS: When we encounter

others, do we bring them the warmth of charity or do we stay

closed up and warm only ourselves before our fireplace? (If you
