WHAT WE DO

FINANCIAL & MATERIAL AND SPIRITUAL ASSISTANCE

Through calls to our dispatch center we are able to assist our community members with specific needs

related to financial, material or spiritual crisis. Dispatchers pick up the calls and assess need and refer to our intake volunteers who reach out to the caller and determine the need, as well as offering acceptance, understanding and Christian compassion. After intake calls are made to confirm need, pledges are made to area landlords or utility companies. The Ministry of the Poor helps with rental assistance, deposits, utility bills, personal identification needs, and material assistance such as mattresses, bedding and housing essentials.

through natural death. We promote respect for human life from all aspects with a special focus on

abortion, scientific embryo research, and euthanasia. Our ministry concentrates on prayer, education

and awareness, direct support to women in crisis pregnancies and political advocacy.

ANOINTING OF THE SICK AND DYING

The Catholic Church has its own rite for the sick, attested to by St. James 5: 14-15. What has been

referred to the Last Rites in the past is actually the reception of these three sacraments:

 A priest hearing the confession (if able) – Sacrament of Reconciliation.

 A priest anointing with Holy Oil – Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick.

 Reception of Holy Communion (if able) – Sacrament of the Eucharist.

When to call for Anointing of the Sick:

Upon knowing that a surgery or medical procedure is needed.

When a chronic illness worsens or has been diagnosed.

MINISTRY OF COMFORT

The death of a loved one is always a difficult cross to bear. We are here to help and support you through our Ministry of Comfort as you plan the funeral of your loved one. In collaboration with the bereavement team, one of our nine teams will work to provide a meal after the funeral service. Please be assured of our prayers at this difficult time. Remember that you are never alone, for Christ walks with you and so do we.

GIVING TREE

Working with the Salvation Army on a yearly basis, we receive a list of names of children and their wish

lists. Once information is gathered, we create tags and place them on a Christmas tree in the church.

Every year parishioners of St. Francis de Sales have the opportunity to serve with generosity and take a

tag or two, purchase the desired items and bring back to the church. Our volunteers collect, organize

and distribute to the families on the day of pick up. A holiday meal is included in the gift to the family.
