Leisa’s leadership in helping parish communities to “look at one another from the perspective of gift and abundance” allows parishes to experience an invitation to enter more deeply into the life of the community. “Everyone has something to give. And not only does everyone have something to give, but everyone needs to give.” Gratitude is a virtue, requiring us to foster, develop and practice the habit of being grateful. Leisa reminds us that the perfect place to bring stewardship to life is at the Eucharist, which itself means Thanksgiving. “In the celebration of the Mass, we celebrate Christ’s sacrifice. And we are called to be sacrificial people…we’re called to give without counting the cost.”
Leisa also shares in this episode about the central role of gratitude in the Archdiocese of Cincinnati’s pastoral plan, Beacons of Light. The plan has six guiding principles focused on renewing parishes to be vibrant communities. One of the principles is stewardship, which speaks of parishes as communities of grateful disciples. Leisa shares how Beacons of Light has already provided new life to parish communities across the archdiocese.
