Our Earthly Stewardship

Bishop Gérald Caussé

Presiding Bishop

“Our Earthly Stewardship”


Bishop Caussé teaches the duty we have to take care of God's creations as stewards over them.

  • Purpose of creation is to provide the setting in which men and women may be tested, exercise agency, find joy, learn and progress toward returning to live with God.

  • “These wonderful creations were prepared entirely for our benefit and are living proof of the love the Creator has for His children.”

  • Our earthly stewardship can be guided by three principles:

  1. The entire earth, including all life thereon, belongs to God.

      • Care of the Earth is a sacred responsibility

  1. As stewards of God’s creations, we have a duty to honor and care for them, especially our brothers/sisters.

  2. We are invited to participate in the work of creation: cultivate earth, build and create, scientific discoveries and create.

  • Partner with our creator in giving life or helping a child grow.

  • “As you stay faithful in this sacred stewardship and honor your eternal covenants, you will grow in the knowledge of God and His Son, Jesus Christ.”
