WHAT IS STEWARDSHIP? 

Orthodox Christian Stewardship is a way of life, which acknowledges accountability, reverence, and responsibility before God. A primary goal of Stewardship is to promote spiritual growth and strengthen faith. Please consider becoming a steward of St. Demetrios today! Help us reach our 2026 Stewardship Goal! Did you know that your 2026 stewardship pledge may be paid in full or by setting up a monthly payment using our online portal? We are pleased to give the ability to all our stewards and friends an opportunity to commit their stewardship online by clicking the below tab– it has never been easier to offer your gift of love to our beloved St. Demetrios Church. Remember everything we offer to Christ and His Church should be done with thoughtful prayer and consideration of all that each of us has received! May our Lord bless you and all you do for Him and His Church!
