Stewardship Reflection for
April 6, 5th Sunday of Lent
In today’s reading, Martha, a close friend of Jesus,
professes her faith in him even in her grief: “Yes, Lord.
I have come to believe that you are the Christ, the Son
of God, the one who is coming into the world.” Good
stewards are friends of Jesus and profess their belief in
him regularly, even when their faith weakens. They
know that death is not the last word; that Jesus is an
agent of change; that faithful stewards never die. Are
we friends of Jesus? Do we actually believe the Creed
we profess? Do we believe Christ has the power to
transform our lives? To give us eternal life?

separating ourselves from the usual distractions of life and in a
setting of beauty and solitude, receive God’s blessings for
you. Men who have attended in the past claim that it was one
of the most significant spiritual experiences of their life. Car
pooling is available for transportation. Contact Tom Mueller at
714-775-1246 for information or to make your reservation.
