Stewardship is a way of life that recognizes everything we have as a gracious gift from God. At the Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish, we invite every parishioner to embrace discipleship through conscious, joyful sharing.
By the end of 2028, the Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish (IHMP) is recognized as a "Stewardship Parish," where parishioners actively live out their faith by sharing their time, talent, and treasure to support the parish’s mission and community growth.
“Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!” — Matthew 25:21
