Stewardship Prayer

Lord of all creation,
we praise and thank You for everything we are.
All we have is Your gift to us.
Through Your love for us,
You gave us the greatest gift of all – Jesus Christ.
Filled with Your love,
we respond to Your call to be disciples of Your Son.
Unite us as a community of Your disciples.
Open our hearts and minds to
Your abundant grace
so that we might become good stewards of Your gifts.
As stewards, teach us to receive Your gifts gratefully,
nurture them responsibly, share them selflessly,
and return them to You with increase,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
