Stewards Receive the Peace of Christ: “Jesus said to them again, ‘Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you. ’” JOHN 20:21 Peace – the first gift of the risen Lord. Just as Jesus sent the apostles out into the world to share His peace and Good News, so too, He sends His Stewards. As disciples of Jesus, we are called to be grateful and generous. We should look for opportunities to share His peace with our brothers and sisters not only within our local parish boundaries, but outside of them as well. In giving, you will receive the peace of Christ.
