Consolation Ministry

Ministry to the Grieving

“Blessed are they that mourn; for they shall be comforted.” —Matthew 5:4

Over and over in Scripture we see that God asks us to comfort those who mourn and shows his own mercy and love for those who suffer a loss. Our pastorate has a ministry to the grieving to help people after the death of a loved one. At such a time, every act of kindness is deeply felt. Please consider joining this rewarding ministry.
 
If you want to join us or simply learn more about us, please contact Michele Callaghan or Karen Hogan or the parish office. Michele can be reached at callagh@verizon.net. Karen can be reached at hogan_karen@hotmail.com. Our phone numbers are available through the parish office.

For Those Who Have Lost a Loved One

For Those Who Have Lost a Loved OneIf you have lost a loved one and want to meet with others who have experienced a loss, please consider joining our fellowship group, Shared Hope. We meet on the second Tuesday of every month at 7:00, often in the chapel at Our Lady of Perpetual Help or in the hall at Our Lady of Sorrows for conversation and refreshments. No loss is too long ago to seek company and comfort. We welcome members of other churches in the area and all those who need comfort and fellowship following the death of a loved one. See your parish calendar for more details or contact your parish office.
