Stewardship / Colecta seminal “The Spirit itself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if

children then heirs, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ…” If we are heirs to the kingdom of God, shouldn’t we work to build up His kingdom? Shouldn’t we be good stewards of our inheritance, using our time in prayer, our talent in charitable works and our treasure to care for the Church that God has left to us? Our Church is a treasured heirloom from God. Do we treat it that way? "El Espíritu mismo da testimonio con nuestro espíritu de que somos hijos de Dios, y si somos hijos, entonces herederos, herederos de Dios y coherederos con Cristo..." - ROMANOS 8:16-17 Si somos herederos del reino de Dios, ¿no deberíamos trabajar para edificar su reino? ¿No deberíamos ser buenos mayordomos de nuestra herencia, utilizando nuestro tiempo en la oración, nuestro talento en obras de caridad y nuestro tesoro para cuidar de la Iglesia que Dios nos ha dejado? Nuestra Iglesia es un tesoro preci-ado de Dios. ¿Lo tratamos de esa manera?

Baby Bottle Campaign During the month of May, Good Counsel will hold a Baby Bottle Campaign to benefit the Arkansas Pregnancy Resource Center, also known as St. Joseph's Helpers. As we honor all of our mothers, in addition to the Blessed Virgin Mary, we begin this program to assist those mothers who find themselves with unexpected pregnancies. Parishioners will be asked to take home an empty baby bottle, offer prayers, and fill the bottle with change, cash, or check made out to the APRC. The bottles should be returned to the church at one of the June 2-3 masses. What a wonderful way to help this Catholic ministry help women find alternatives to abortion!

Campaña biberón Durante el mes de mayo, Nuestra Señora del Buen Consejo será anfitriona de la campaña de biberones para el centro de recursos para embarazadas de Arkansas, también conocida como Ayudantes de San José (St. Joseph’s Helpers). De la misma manera que honramos a nuestras madrecitas, al igual que la Beata Virgen Maria, empezamos este programa para apoyar a las mamás que se encuentran inesperadamente embarazadas. Se les pide a los parroquianos que lleven a su casa un biberón vacío, que recen y que llenen el biberón con cambio, efectivo, o cheque para Arkansas Pregnancy Resource Center. Los biberones se regresan a la iglesia el 2 o 3 de junio durante misa. ¡Que maravillosa manera de ayudar este ministerio católico a ayudar a las mujeres a encontrar una alternativa al aborto!
