Stewardship Awareness Sunday The Archbishop Miller wrote: "Next Sunday the Archdiocese will be observing Stewardship Awareness Sunday. Providing hospitality to strangers is a hallmark of Christian stewardship. To mark the Year of Faith, in the fall of this year, our Archdiocese will embark on a special initiative to welcome home to the Church those who have become inactive. Everyone is being called to take a part in this undertaking." For info: www.rcav.org/stewardship.
