Stewardship

Time, Talent, and Treasure

Open Enrollment – December through February

Stewardship is the responsibility of reverently managing the resources and blessings that God has bestowed upon us. Those resources and blessings include our time, talents, and treasures.

Stewardship is not just a program, but as indicated in the adjacent icon, it is a Christ-centered “way of life” for one to grow spiritually through generous giving and service to others.

Orthodox stewardship calls us to actively participate in the life of the church by offering our time, talents, and treasures to support Holy Trinity and its ministries.

The Holy Trinity stewardship program is open to all parishioners.
