The primary mission of St. Jude Catholic School is to prepare the children to become adult Catholic Christians.
Stewardship plays an important role in the lives of people who seek to follow Christ.
Becoming a disciple of Christ leads naturally to the practice of stewardship, the giving of one's time, talent, and treasure in return for the blessings God has given.
All Catholics are called to be stewards of God's gifts.
Therefore, this shared trust involves all in the parish. St. Jude parishioners with children in the school exercise stewardship to both the school and the parish.
