Spotlight on Stewardship Apr. 3, 2016 Stewardship Reflection “Jesus said to them again, ‘Peace be with you. As the

Father has sent me, so I send you.’” (John 20:21)

Peace—the first gift of the risen Lord. Just as Jesus

sent the apostles out into the world to share His

peace and Good News, so too, He sends us. As

disciples of Jesus, we are called to be grateful and

generous. We should look for opportunities to share

His peace with our brothers and sisters not only

within our local parish boundaries, but outside of

them as well. In giving, you will receive the peace of

Christ.

CRS Rice Bowls Please remember to return your CRS Rice Bowls to

the table in the Commons Area this weekend. Thank

you for participating in this important Lenten

program!
