GIVING
A Season of Stewardship
“Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?” Isaiah 43:19
Our theme for this year’s financial giving campaign comes from the prophet Isaiah, writing to God’s people in exile in Babylon. After generations of disorientation and loss, Isaiah urges them to notice and pay attention to what God is doing in their midst. Signs of hope, new life, and restoration abound: we just have to notice. We chose this verse because after a long season of transition and pandemic, St. Benedict’s, too, is seeing newness and vitality and looking towards a future faithful to God’s call. Signs of God’s new things are all around us. There are new faces enriching our parish’s life in Christ; faithful folks serving in new ways like choir or flower guild–sharing their talents in new ways; the joyful sounds of children at once-quiet 8:00 worship; new hands making sandwiches for neighbor; new baptisms and confirmations marking new life in Christ. In 2023 we will discern together a new focus on serving our neighbors in Smyrna.
