Pastoral Care Ministries
Alcoholics Anonymous
The AA group meetings are Monday and Thursday nights.

Eucharistic Visitors
The mission of the Eucharistic Visitors is to be a pastoral and sacramental presence to those who are homebound or in the hospital or are recovering from illness by taking the consecrated bread and wine to these parishioners directly from the service each Sunday.

Funeral Ministry
At the time of a funeral, the parish offers a reception following the service, in the tower cloister/gathering space area. Family and friends who would like to help are welcome to do so.

Parish Nurse Health Ministry
Registered nurses, health workers, and volunteers offer an innovative and inclusive ministry through various opportunities for health awareness. The nurses and volunteers provide health monitoring by offering blood pressures and blood glucose testing the first Sunday of every month.

Prayer Chain
Members make a commitment to daily prayer for concerns of the parish and our friends.

R.O.S.E.S. (Reach Out -Serve Elderly Shut-Ins)
R.O.S.E.S. visitors provide friendship and loving concern to elderly parishioners and other members of the community who may be isolated and have limited social connection with family and friends.
