The Parish Social Outreach Ministry is the empowerment of the parish as the people of God to fulfill the Church's mission of love, justice, freedom and peace. It accomplishes this by communally responding in an organized way to individual and societal human needs. It assists parishioners to understand and act on Catholic Social Teaching. Our Parish Social Outreach Ministry responds to human needs, whatever they may be, whether hunger, housing, illness, loneliness or employment. These needs may affect only one person or one family or they may arise from social policy that affects many. This committee assists families, seniors and others in our community who are in need. Members share two to three hours per week to organize food, stock shelves and distribute supplies.Those involved in this ministry sort and/or distribute clothing at selected times of the year.This committee meets in October to plan for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. They separate and pack food and gifts for the needy families and assist in carrying bags to their vehicles.

Special Notes for Week of May 15th St. Paul reminds us in Galatians 6:2, “Carry
each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the
law of Christ.” We have a family who is in need of a
table and a bed. If you believe that you can help out
with this situation, please call the Parish Social
Outreach Office. |
