Our Mission is to provide spiritual and material help to the poor regardless
of Race Color or Creed. Locally, we receive referrals from a central clearing
organization. This allows us to coordinate benefits with other churches and
organizations. The benefits we provide include food plus rent, gas and electric
bill assistance.
Our officers are:
John Donnelly President
Paul Ohm Treasurer
Cheri Schmoll Secretary
We welcome new members. To learn more about our organization,
please call 962-2267. A member will return your call and provide additional
information.
Ministry to the homebound is provided by the parish priests, deacon, and lay volunteers. Lay ministers to the homebound who
provide Communion to the homebound must be commissioned as Special Ministers of the Eucharist. Ministers visit
parishioners unable to attend mass, at their home, in the hospital, and in nursing homes.
If you or someone you know is homebound and would like to receive a bulletin in the mail, please
notify us by email.
