Welcome to Steward of the Month™

 

God's stewards don't seek recognition, but they deserve it! Steward of the Month is an exciting way to tell the story of someone who has been a great steward in your church or community. The story can be about anyone who has used their time, talent or resources unselfishly to give back what they have been given by God.

All stories submitted will be reviewed and posted on this site. In addition, we will choose one story each month to appear in our national publication Stewardship, which is read by over a million people! In addition, if your story is chosen, we will donate $100 to the church, or other non-profit organization of your choice!

Fab Five plus   Submitted by: Cindy from Vermillion, SD

As the sun rises ready for a new day, the halls of the Trinity Lutheran Church are buzzing each and every Friday morning. A dedicated group that, I believe, began with only 5 people, prepare the food pantry for the food that will soon be brought in, while another dedicated group travels to the local Walmart and pick up the food that they can no longer use. This group starts with the first ones arriving at ... Read Full Story

And He Followed the Star   Submitted by: Debbie from Fullerton, CA

St. Philip Benizi is an aging parish of limited means, so every challenge is met with questions: Can we afford it? Can we accomplish it?

Last Christmas, 2010, our manger sported a cardboard star held up by a wooden dowel through the roof of the stable. It was cheap, easy and didn't require a ladder. Who knew it would lead to anyone?

One parishioner was led by that star and its lack of inspiration to step up and volunteer to ... Read Full Story

Elfriede Mott   Submitted by: gene from Boynton Beach, FL

When I read the "Steward of the Month" item in Stewardship my thoughts immediately turned to Elfriede, an 85 year old steward, and one of the backbones of our church.

When our Wednesday volunteers show up each week to do landscaping, cleaning and other odd jobs, Elfriede is there to greet them with a smile and to remind them of things that need to be done. When they stop for a mid-morning break she has set the table, brewed the coffee and ... Read Full Story

Faithful   Submitted by: Carrie from Richmond, VA

This person shall be nameless, because whatever she does, she always wants to remain unknown. Some people are blessed with many things and are selfish when it comes to sharing them. But not this person. Just say the word and she is on the spot, no questions asked except for "When are we going to do this?" She is always willing to go the last mile of the way.

I know this to be true on numerous occasions. ... Read Full Story

A lifetime of Stewardship   Submitted by: Nancy from Woodbridge, VA

Christian Stewardship is not only found within the faith community, but can also be found in the public sector. The White Oaks Elementary School has been and continues to be blessed by the more than thirty-year stewardship of Finance Secretary, Virginia Kost. Thousands of students, their parents, teachers, staff and the community have benefited from her tireless efforts to care for the public funds that have been entrusted to her.

During these economically challenging times, Virginia encouraged the ... Read Full Story
