Dear Karen,

I am unaware of that article being available as a printed booklet, but I believe the LCMS has granted permission for churches to download copies and make printouts for congregational use.

The link is: http://faithaflame.lcms.org/documents/download-nu.asp?filename=GuidelinesChristianStewardsDSB.pdf

Blessings, Rob Blezard

Comment on Ash Wednesday: When stewards take stock by Maria E. Sáez

Thank you pastor. I find your meditation very pertaining, and more so than the ones I find in the websites that fit my background (Catholic Hispanic, born in S. America, Spanish parents, US citizen for decades, educated by US & Spanish nuns). “Time will destroy us despite the defensive ramparts and barricades we construct with our money, our fame, our beauty, our power, and so on. So if death and dust are inevitable, Ash Wednesday asks us, why do we human beings build our silly defenses as if, AS IF they will protect us? Why build put up barriers when instead, we can use our time, our wealth, our creativity and power to live free, abundant lives for God’s purposes?” I find it so difficult to use God’s time dilligently; I find it so easy to contemplate my life drifting away into time

Thank you, Rev. Hamill. A field of fireflies on a warm summer night is a thing of beauty…just as the church is when we all put our gifts to use in service of the Creator. We sang “This Little Light of Mine” yesterday, too. Blessings on your ministry. Thanks for stopping in!

Thank you for your image of a field coming alive with the fireflies. It is a very compelling and helpful image.
