Saint Martha Catholic Church issued the following announcement on July 12

“Charity isn’t about pity- it is about love.” – Mother Teresa Show love to those most in need by making a gift today. www.isupportabcd.org

In our quickly changing world and society, now more than ever, we need to make sure we’re providing future generations with the tools they need to grow and practice their Catholic faith. For more information, contact the Office of Planned Giving today! 305-762-1112

” The seed sown among thorns is the one who hears the word, but then worldly anxiety and the lure of riches choke the word and it bears no fruit. But the seed sown on rich soil is the one who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and yields a hundred or sixty or thirtyfold” (Matthew 13:22-23)

Are we so caught up in our worldly activities that we have no time for God? Does the lure of riches and materialism choke God out of our lives? Do we put into practice what we learn on Sunday in our everyday lives? Stewardship is a lifestyle to be lived every day. It affects all decisions that we make, it builds a solid base of fertile soil so we, too, can bear fruit and grow.
