Pastoral Care

All sorts of occasions, happy and sad, happen within a community. The team sends cards and notes of congratulations, encouragement, and sympathies.

​Lay Eucharistic Ministers (LEMs) serve communion at the alter. Lay Eucharistic Visitors (LEVs) take already blessed communion to parishioners unable to attend service.

​Most prayer requests are not published in the bulletin; thus, the prayer chain team remembers all those parishioners in need of supernatural uplifting and praise.

We provide rest for the weary by enable caregivers to attend church or other matters. Team members happily sit with the home-bound parishioner.

The hospitality team serves light refreshments after funerals and coordinates meals to parishioners and guests.

​Team members delivering the best "awes" enjoy gifting new baby families with cradle crosses and knit baby blankets lovingly handmade by parishioners.

Parishioners tenderly knit prayer shawls that are delivered to those in need. This includes members and non-members. Special requests for colors and patterns are welcomed.

​Team members generously taxi parishioners unable to drive themselves to appointments, the store, church, and occasions.
