Preaching Good News
 
         In every parish I have been in there has always been some sort of time and talent event.  From weekend talks to time and talent fairs, the parish and various groups seek to increase volunteers and parishioner participation.  Some offer to assist because they want to “help Father.”  The real reason should be that we taking responsibility for the Parish.    

         In the corridors of the Stewardship ilk, taking responsibility is exactly what we are called to do. Like the prophets of old, the saints, and holy men and women, throughout countless generations, we are responsible for the faith, and work of faith, that has been entrusted to us.  As Baptized believers, we share our faith with each other and the larger community.

         Some of these ministries involve bringing Communion to the homebound, Lectoring, or being an adult leader on a high school retreat.  But these also include those moments when we stop by the church to pray, teach our children the Sign of the Cross, or stop by our parents with a bag of bagels. 

         We are with Christ and continue on his mission and ministry when what we do is done in his name.  Sometimes it looks very much like the Church, or sometimes being a good neighbor.  St Thomas Aquinas mused that God is found in goodness, truth, and beauty.  When these pieces are part of the equation then the Good News of the kingdom is made known.
