“The Call” is the title of the very first chapter of the United States Catholic bishops’ pastoral letter Stewardship: Special Guests of the 2017 Annual Conference A Disciple’s Response. Their premise is that every baptized Christian is called to be a follower of Jesus Christ and to be a good steward of their life in Christ. Today, twenty-five years Bishop Robert F. Morneau after the stewardship pastoral was written, the International Auxiliary Bishop Emeritus Catholic Stewardship Council honors the bishops’ pastoral Diocese of Green Bay, Wisconsin at its 55th annual conference to be held from September 17 to 20, 2017 in Atlanta, Georgia. This year, ICSC adopts as its conference image the classical painting The Calling of Saint Matthew by Michelangelo Caravaggio. This painting depicts the gospel scene where Archbishop Wilton D. Gregory Jesus calls Matthew to follow him (Mt. 9:9); thus, changing Archbishop his life radically. The painting symbolizes that universal call Archdiocese of Atlanta, Georgia to follow Christ Jesus no matter the cost. It is not a coin- cidence that this year’s ICSC conference begins a few days before the feast of Saint Matthew on September 21.

The spiritual energy generated at the annual ICSC Archbishop James P. Keleher conference is always inspiring! Archbishop Emeritus Internationally recognized as the most valuable conference Archdiocese of Kansas City, Kansas for those involved in Christian stewardship, the annual ICSC conference is a gathering of scores of Catholic stewards living and teaching Christian stewardship in the Catho- lic tradition.

Dear Young Adults,

Greetings! I hope this finds you well! I am writing to update you on the Diocese of Charleston’s plans for World Youth Day in Panama, January 19-28, 2019. Even though it is a year and a half away, we are beginning to plan for the pilgrimage now. Because of the unusual time of year for World Youth Day, our Diocese will only be taking college age and above young adults to Panama 2019; however, this will still be an exciting, and a life- changing event for those who attend.

Instituted by St. John Paul II, World Youth Day is a week-long pilgrimage organized every three years where young people from around the world gather to share their faith. There will be prayer and music, sharing and catechesis, with a closing vigil Mass celebrated by Pope Francis. We will also get the opportunity to explore Panama by visiting the Panama Canal, taking a day trip into the Gamboa Rainforest, with free time to take in the sights of Panama.

Attached you will find the brochure from our travel agency, Dube Travel, with the itinerary of events and what the package includes. Dube Travel is a Catholic travel agency with a reputation for high service and many years of experience in leading World Youth Day pilgrimages.

For those who are interested in attending, there will be two interest sessions led by Chris Dube from Dube Travel on the following dates and locations:

Saturday, August 26, 2017 – 1:30 p.m. Sunday, August 27, 2017 – 1:30 p.m. Diocese of Charleston – Office Building St. Joseph Catholic Church 901 Orange Grove Road Ministries and Administration Building Charleston, SC 29407 3512 Devine Street Columbia, SC 29205

If you are interested in attending one of these sessions, please let me know so we have an idea for number of attendees for each session. I can be reached at (843) 261-0445 or [email protected].

Peace in Christ,

Lexie Segrest Associate Director of Young Adult Ministry

Nurturing Gratitude: The Foundation Upon Which the Pillars of Stewardship Stand Presented by Mark Mogilka, Director of Stewardship and Pastoral Services, Diocese of Green Bay, WI

If members of a faith community are not able to see the many blessings they have and to affirm and give thanks for their abundant gifts, it is difficult for them to embrace the call to freely share their time, talent, and treasures with others. Cultivating a personal lifestyle or a culture of stewardship in a faith community is dependent on the ability of persons and communities to nurture the “attitude of gratitude”. An exploration of gratitude well as some practical ideas how to personally and communally nurture this virtue will be presented.
