STEWARDSHIP THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:   Ephesians 4:1        
“I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you were called.”  The callings we have from the Lord are our “vocations.”  Here Paul talks about our vocation as Christians.  We are called to be His people and o reflect His love, generosity, and peace within the Church.
T BLESSINGS ON YOUR WEEK! T
