A Stewardship Moment

Saint Paul reminds us as baptized Christians, as those who have shared the Eucharist with one another, that we are “servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God”. We

are not to define ourselves by our age, ethnicity, gender, social status, work vocation or avocation. Our primary

self-understanding should be that of servants and stewards of the Lord and all that has been entrusted to us. Can we accept this

self-understanding? Do we find it encouraging?
