Highlights of Our 2021 Stewardship Renewal
T
his past fall, our Antigo Area Catholic Churches conducted the 2021 Stewardship Renewal. The Stewardship Renewal gave our community the opportunity to discern how we are using our gifts of time, talent, and treasure in service to our parishes and in return to God. This month, we are happy to share with you some of the highlights of the 2021 Stewardship Renewal. • • •

There were 247 commitment cards received from 33 percent of active households. There were 1,484 prayer commitments — the stewardship of time — from 85 percent of participating households. There were 1,231 ministry commitments — the stewardship of talent — from 88 percent of participating households. Of these, 418 were new ministry commitments, while 813 were re-commitments to parish ministries. There were 183 offertory commitments — the stewardship of treasure — from 74 percent of participating households. The average pledge was $1,664.
We thank all those who participated in our 2021 Stewardship Renewal. If you did not have the opportunity to fill out and return a commitment card, we invite you to consider the ways you may share your gifts of time, talent, and treasure with God and the parish community!
