DISCIPLESHIP OF TIME AND TALENT
Heavenly Father, You have called us to live as missionary disciples of your Son, Jesus Christ. Grant us the gift of wisdom to know and to do God’s will, and the grace of freedom to say “yes” to Christ’s call to be his disciples and announce the Kingdom of God with our words and our deeds. Amen.
The Lord is calling you to serve Him in His Church with the many talents He has given you. Take a moment to pray about where the Lord might be calling you to serve with those talents in our parish.
