Faith, Stewardship, and a Leaving a Lasting Legacy of Faith — with Tony Menke

In this episode of Living LIT—Living in Truth, Robyn sits down with Tony Menke, from the Catholic Community Foundation for Eastern South Dakota to talk about how the Foundation serves the Church, supports parishes and ministries, and impacts lives across our diocese.The Foundation exists to help Catholics live and leave a lasting legacy of faith—connecting the blessings God has entrusted to us with the needs of the Church and our communities, both now and for generations to come. Through stewardship, they help ministries flourish and ensure the light of faith continues to shine far into the future.Robyn also shares a behind-the-scenes story of how the Foundation is supporting the Living LIT Apostolate through a grant she received—an experience she describes as “a Catholic-Christian version of Shark Tank—only with prayer, discernment, and the Holy Spirit leading every decision.” It’s like a Catholic take on Shark Tank–you share your mission and ministry before a board that prayerfully discerns how to invest in ministries making an impact, and instead of sharks, there’s a board guided by prayer and discernment.Together, Robyn and Tony reflect on how we can all be part of building a legacy of faithThis episode will open your eyes to the incredible work happening right here in our diocese—and remind you that when we give, we truly live lit, letting the light of Christ shine through stewardship, generosity, and faith in action.Give back to the Catholic community: https://ccfesd.org/
