Care of Sick
(Fr. Michael giving communion to the sick)
"A society will be judged on the basis of how it treats its weakest members and among the most vulnerable are surely the unborn and the dying," ~Pope John Paul II
For families who are dealing with the burden of significant illness, the frustration that sometimes accompanies contacting a priest can make matters even worse. Because of a number of contributing factors, families may have difficulty locating a priest who can visit a sick family member either at home or in the hospital.

Our clergy takes the responsibility of responding to this pastoral need promptly and with compassion. Besides visiting our own parishioners in several regional medical centers in our area, our priests also respond to local people outside of our parish who have experienced such difficulties.
