Stewardship Resources

“The earth is the Lord’s and all that is in it,
the world, and those who live in it.”

Psalm 24:1

“We as stewards affirm the goodness of life. We rejoice in accepting the abundance
with which God has endowed the earth. We commit ourselves
to participate in God’s redemptive intention for the world: that all people should be able to live
in peace and to enjoy the days of their lives free from hunger, disease, hopelessness, and oppression.”
