Grateful Living
A Focus on Stewardship

All we have—our lives; our talents, skills, and resources; the world around us—are free gifts from God. We show our gratitude for these gifts by giving them back through acts of generosity and hospitality, supporting and caring for the Church, the earth, our communities, and each other. This is stewardship. We don’t exercise it at random but with hearts open to the particular call God makes to each of us.

"Flourishing in our Archdiocese"

RENEW is flourishing in our archdiocese. Its initial gifts that I experienced 39 years ago are now shared with the world... I support RENEW, as did my predecessors, Archbishop Myers and Archbishop Gerety

Review by Joseph Cardinal Tobin,

Archbishop of Newark, Chairman,

RENEW International Corporate Board

"Through RENEW, I have witnessed the Holy Spirit
powerfully at work in our Catholic community..."

...In addition to attending my own group, my goal is to experience a session at each of our thirteen groups. What I have witnessed so far has truly astounded me. I’ve seen college athletes learning from older parishioners, teens thoughtfully debating whether it is harder to forgive or to be forgiven, folks returning to mass, and others simply seeking friendship and growth in their faith. Again and again, I’ve heard participants share how meaningful it has been to talk about Jesus in a safe and welcoming space. The RENEW process itself has been seamless and fruitful, guiding us step by step, from planning to fruition, to where we now have over 140 participants. When we were first discerning whether RENEW would be right for our Collaborative, I remember asking Joe how we might measure “success.” He asked me: If just one person found Jesus, would that not be success? This week, as we reflected on the parable of the lost sheep in RENEW - Week 4, Joe’s words came flooding back to me.
