The Homebound Ministry is focused on ensuring that parishioners who are not able to join us for liturgy continue to feel the support of the parish family. This caring support is carried out primarily through bringing the Eucharist to these individuals. Each visit brings not only the presence of Christ but the loving touch of the entire parish family. It also reassures the homebound that they continue to be an important part of our faith community.
We are currently looking for volunteers to participate in this ministry. Is God calling you to bring Christ in the Eucharist to those unable to join us for Sunday Mass? Homebound Ministers receive initial training and ongoing support as they perform this important and rewarding service to others.
Although the typical homebound members are senior parishioners, our homebound visits also include those with physical challenges, who are ill, or persons in rehabilitation. The Homebound Ministers go in person to visit, and also make a phone call for Prayers & Spiritual Communion. The Homebound Ministry is committed to serving our extended community.
To join the ministry or request a visit by a homebound minister, contact the church office or Jim Wilkins at (615) 419-8021.
