Pastoral Care Ministers :
Pastoral Care is ministering
to people at special and difficult times in their life journey.
When aging or ill parishioners cannot come to church, the church
reaches out to them through the presence and care of our pastoral
care ministers. When parishioners die, Funeral Ministry provides
hospitality following funeral services, if requested by the grieving
family. If you wish to offer the care and love of your heart and
of your faith to those in need, please call Parish Office (408)
264-3600.
Community
Ministry:
People helping People is the best definition of community ministry.
We all find ourselves from time to time in difficulties we can't
control. Community Ministry tries to organize the parishioners so
that they can answer their own emergency needs. It is people, volunteers
from the community, responding to the emergency needs of our community
and beyond. Community Ministry is you and me, working together,
to help each other. Interested? Please call Community Ministry Office
(408) 266-2727.
