Our Story .59BaptismsVacation Bible School “ROAR”!61Youth CelebratingFirst CommunionDear Friends in Christ,On behalf of your priests, parishcouncil and ministry leaders, wethank you for your goodwill, hardwork and generous spirit during thispast year. The efforts by many werecrucial and enabled St. John VianneyParish to keep moving forward in ourimportant ministry work.When we think about stewardship,we oftentimes think about money.Yet, the biblical understanding ofstewardship is the humblerecognition that all that we haveand all that we are is an absolute giftfrom God. So stewardship is adisciple’s response. Using our time,our talent, and our treasure we giveback what we have received as adirect response to God’s goodnessin our own lives.We ask that every family take timeto prayerfully consider where theLord is calling you to take steps to be more committed in your faiththrough the use of your prayers,talents and your finances. I wishto say thank you for all the ways inwhich you live a stewardship wayof life. And, I want to assure youof my prayers as you make yourcommitments for this upcomingyear.God bless!Very Rev.

We are pleased to report a balanced budget once againfor the 2019-2020 fiscal year.The new budget includes a projected reduction of 9% in offertory and a 10%reduction in Festival net income. These reductions reflect trends occurring overthe past two years. A new K3 class is starting and full. School enrollment wasconservatively projected at 302 students.Outreach expenditures were cut by half to 2.5% of offertory which includes 0.5%continued support to Prince of Peace in Milwaukee, 1.3% to general outreach,and 0.7% to our International Twinning relationship with Santísimo SacramentoParish and Trade School, in Piura, Peru.Expenses were cut in many areas to offset the expected reduction in offertory.Two-and a-half positions were cut along with reductions to outside servicefirms. We felt it important to provide a slight wage increase of 2%, while healthinsurance increased 4%, and dental insurance decreased by 7%.Doors to Our Faith debt obligations for this fiscal year are not projected toimpact this budget. Collected and remaining pledged funds should cover thisyear.Debt service cost is for interest on line-of-credit expected borrowings.We thank you for your continued generosity in support of your parish and ourmission.

Stewardship ofTREASUREJust as time and talents are giftsfrom God, so too, are materialthings, or Treasure. And just asour time and talent are meant tobe used for our good, the good ofothers and God’s glory, so too, is ourtreasure.prayerfulStewardship ofTIMEAn intimate friendship with Jesusis cultivated through prayer wherewe answer God’s call to love withour whole heart, mind and personby expressing our gratitude to Himfor all He has given us, especially Hisson, Jesus.Praying regularly can bechallenging. Yet just as we manageour money and time to make ourlives run more smoothly, making apersonal pledge to spend time andattention in prayer is critical to helpus see the presence of God in ourlives as we grow in relationship withHis son.It is impossible to be a goodsteward without first becoming atrue disciple of Christ. The two gohand-in-hand, with one shapingwho we are, while the other guideshow we live our lives. Yet, Christmakes it clear in Scripture thatdiscipleship isn’t merely about ourown personal belief in Him. It’ssomething that must be acted uponand shared, spreading the GoodNews to others (Mark 16:15).Tithing as an act of worship?Attend MassWhat are yourspiritualgoals?more regularly - every Sunday and Holy Day daily Mass once a week or more frequentlyKeep Sunday holyrefrain from unnecessary events or workSpend personal time with Jesusdaily5 minutes - 10 minutes - 30 minutes - or moreYes! It’s no accident that the fruitsof our labor, the collection, areoffered at the same time as thepresentation of the bread and wine.Just as bread and wine representthe “work of human hands,” moneyrepresents the results of our work.This monetary gift represents thegift of ourselves to God, from our“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth,where moth and decay destroy, and thieves break inand steal. But store up for yourselves treasures inheaven.For where your treasure is, there also willyour heart be.”-Matthew 6:19-21hard work and sacrifice. Just as Godtransforms the bread and wine andgives them back to us to share inHis life, God accepts our monetarygift and transforms it though thework of the parish.The Scriptures and Churchtraditions teach us one importantpoint that cannot be overstated that stewardship is primarily basedon our need to give in gratitude, noton the Church’s need to receive.Of course both the Catholic Churchand our parish will always needmoney. However, we are not askedto give simply to defray costs andfund programs. We are insteadasked to remember our need togratefully return a portion of ourtime, talent and treasure to God,recognizing all that He has given tous.True Catholic stewardship involvesan ongoing call to live as followersof Christ. It takes time to find anddefine personal goals. You canbegin by examining your personalcommitments to St. John Vianney.How do you live your faith in yourdaily life with your family andfriends? How much time do youspend in daily prayer, going toMass or being involved in parishministries and activities? Whatpercentage of your income shouldyou give back to God every week?What talents do you have that couldbe used to strengthen our parishfamily?Teach my children to praymealtimes (even in restaurants) - bedtime before schoolPray as a family dailyTake some time to discernhow you and your familywill grow closerto Jesus this year.Study our Catholic faith with othersCommit to a Holy Hour of AdorationRead and meditate on scripture(Lectio Divina)weekly - daily“We need simplicity to pray as a family: simplicity isnecessary! Praying the Our Father together aroundthe table is not something extraordinary: it’s easy.And praying the Rosary together, as a family, is verybeautiful and a source of great strength! And alsopraying for one another!”-Pope Francis HomilyOctober 27, 2013Pray the Rosary or Divine MercyChapletweekly-dailyGo to the Sacrament ofReconciliationmore frequently - quarterly - monthlyPray for vocationspriesthood, religous life, married lifeInvite a friendto Mass - parish eventgenerous9
“Yet we cannot celebrate this free gift of the Lord’sfriendship unless we realize that our earthly lifeand our natural abilities are His gift. We need toacknowledge jubilantly that our life is essentially a gift.”-Pope Francis, from his ApostolicExhortation, On HolinessStewardship ofTALENTOur good God has created eachone of us with unique strengths,personalities, interests andchallenges. All are His gifts to us.And all are meant for good, thegood of others and His glory. Isn’tthat an amazing truth?Consider these words the Lord isspeaking to you today, “It was notyou who chose me, but I who choseyou and appointed you to go andbear fruit that will remain, so thatwhatever you ask the Father inmy name He may give you. This Icommand you: love one another”(John 15:16-17).During this moment of renewaland commitment, think about thegifts that the Lord has given youand your family and ask Him howyou can use them to love others ingratefulness for His goodness toyou.St. John Vianney has a ministry forevery skill and interest!MinistryDescriptionsRead about each of the ministries on these pages,mark yourchoices accordingly on your Commitment Form and return onCommitment Weekend, November 9-10, 2019.1Find a quiet place and time.Maybe spend some time in Adoration.The ministry leader for your selections will call to explain howto get involved, or you may contact them directly.
