Mission Statement

Mission Statement:

indful of the admonition from the Second Vatican Council that we are a learning church and a teaching church, the Land Stewardship Committee of Mary Help of Christians makes the commitment to provide the environment, the opportunity, and the leadership that is in harmony with the goals of the faith community and consistent and supportive of the concept that the parish grounds, a unique and integral part of the composition of the parish, can and should be an educational platform.

While advancing the programs and policies of the Archdiocese of Miami and the parish of Mary Help of Christians, the Land Stewardship Committee will appreciate and understand that the teaching and learning process is mutual, reciprocal, and part of the baptismal promise and obligation.

The parish grounds, flora and fauna, in the richness of its diversity and delicacy of its balance will assume its rightful place in the overall development of the goals of the parish. This Mission Statement is a pledge by the members of the Land Stewardship Committee to become stewards of the land and to provide and acquire the necessary skills, spiritual development, and mentoring proficiency, to fulfill their Christian obligation to become, like Mary our patroness, Help of Christians.
