 Pastoral Care

Pastoral care is available when you need it. Just call the parish number, 238-3471, and ask for the Pastoral Associate, Ed Emmenegger, who can be reached at extension 119. 

If your call is not during office hours, leave a message and it will be returned as soon as possible. 

Visiting Ministry - Members of the parish community visit those who are hospitalized or at home with illness or disability, to offer support and encouragement.  Distribution of Communion to the homebound is available for those unable to attend weekend liturgies due to illness or disability.

You can represent the presence of Christ to members of our community who are sick, homebound, hospitalized, or living in a wide variety of local care facilities. Training is available to support these volunteers. Contact the Pastoral Associate.

Senior Meal -If you are a senior, and would like to join with old and new friends for this weekly meal, please call the Parish Center, 238-3471, so we can count you in.  New faces are always welcome each Wednesday at noon in the easily accessible first floor dining room of the Parish Center.

Elizabeth Ministries – Our parish supports and assists women and their families during their child-bearing years. Contact Devon Kinne at 819-1074, for more information about receiving assistance during adoption, pregnancy, birth and after your child is born.

Prayers of the Faithful - At each weekend Mass the parish community prays for family members and friends who are sick or who have died. Call  Mindy Wendt at 238-3471 to have a name included. When parishioners call to submit names for the Prayer of the Faithful, they can also request any other needed support from the Pastoral Team.

Prayer Chain - If you have a family member or friend who is going through a personal crisis, and who has expressed a desire for prayer, this organization of parishioners will gladly help.

Specific prayer intentions are called in to a representative from the prayer chain. Others on the prayer chain join in praying for those intentions. If you would like prayers offered, or would like to join the prayer chain, contact Janet Hogan, 233-3512.
