* Stewardship in Action *

Volunteers share their Time and Talent in many ways. We are blessed to have many wonderful ministries and we are grateful for all of our dedicated volunteers. We encourage others to get involved. Each month we will highlight a different ministry. If you are interested in volunteering you should contact the ministry leader or the rectory office for more information.

This month’s featured ministries:
MAILING MINISTRY *
Our thanks go out to all of the wonderful volunteers in our mail ministry who come together whenever we call upon them to collate and stuff the envelopes for our parish mailings. Each time we have a need to communicate to our parishioners in this way (Advent, Christmas, Lent and other special annual mailings) these volunteers joyfully gather to prepare the materials to be mailed. Having this committee of volunteers saves the parish the expense of having it done by an outside company. The commitment is only one or two days about five times per year. We need about 8-12 people for each mailing and we call in advance to ask if you are available to come down for the stuffing of the envelopes. If you are interested in joining these dedicated volunteers, please call the rectory office @ 588-8456 and leave your name and phone number.

PARISH OUTREACH VOLUNTEERS *
We are very lucky and extremely grateful to have a great group of dedicated volunteers who really understand the concept of giving back. They spend hours in our parish outreach sorting and stocking the shelves with all the donations of food, clothing and personal care items which come in on a regular basis. At this time of year they work extremely hard to prepare for Thanksgiving and Christmas. People are very generous with donations for both holidays and it takes a lot of volunteers working together to get the items sorted and distributed to the families that are in need of assistance to insure that everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving and a Merry Christmas. If you are available during the day and share the same spirit of giving back then we invite you to join this ministry. Please call 981-6888 to speak with Anne Kelly the director of Parish Outreach for more information.
THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR DEDICATED VOLUTEERS WHO SHARE THEIR TIME AND TALENT IN SO MANY WAYS
