Launder the Mass Linens (May 2008)
Do You Own a Washing Machine? The parish could really use your help!
We are in need of one or two more people to help periodically with laundering the linens used during Mass. If you are interested, you’re welcome to try it once before deciding whether to commit to helping longer-term. It only takes a couple of hours, and we’ll teach you all the tricks of the trade.

Please contact Mary McCain at mccainmary@hotmail.com
And many thanks to the wonderful parishioners who are already helping with this important work!!

Theology on Tap -- Volunteers Needed (May 2008)
It is hard to believe, but Summer and Theology-on-Tap are right around the corner. Theology-on-Tap is a four-week speaker series which serves as an opportunity to help young adults grow in their faith and meet new people. In order to make this speaker series a success, we need your help.

Please email Rebecca Carmichael at rrcarmich@hotmail.com if you are interested in volunteering as part of the planning committee for this fantastic young adult event.

Seton Food Pantry
The Food Pantry provides individuals and households in our community with needed groceries once a week, every week of the year. Volunteers are needed to help sort, assemble and distribute these groceries. If interested, please see the Seton Food Pantry page for more details.

Seton Sandwich Kitchen
The Sandwich Kitchen serves the homeless a morning meal throughout the week, every week of the year. Many volunteers are needed to help serve these meals, and this is a great way to get involved in one of the parish’s outreach programs on a weekly, bi-monthly, or monthly basis. If interested, please see the Seton Sandwich Kitchen page for more details.

SPRED
Have you ever wanted to get more out of your faith journey? Then consider learning more about SPRED. We are a small faith-sharing community who help children with developmental disabilities to grow in their spirituality. Our group of 6- to 10- year-olds make us smile, laugh, and get more out of our relationship with God and each other, and we’re sure they could do the same for you. Please consider giving just a little of your time to this truly rewarding group. For more information, please email Tracy at stvdepspred@yahoo.com.

Ministry of Care
The Ministry of Care program ensures that people who are unable to attend church are visited by pastoral staff who can serve their religious needs, including receiving the Holy Eucharist if desired. People often cannot attend church:
  • Who may have a chronic illness
  • Who are simply sick and unable to get out
  • Who may have recently had surgery or are hospitalized
  • Who may be the actual care giver and unable to leave their loved one
Sometimes it is through the experience of receiving the Body and Blood of Christ that a person opens up and begins to heal.

We need your help to determine who these individuals are so that we can help minister to their needs. If you know of anyone who may need or want to be visited by this program, please call the Parish Center or email Kara Skean and she will forward the information appropriately.

Clothing Donations
Many people bring clothing donations to the Parish Center. When doing so, please be sure to place your clothing donations into clean plastic trash bags. Please do NOT bring loose clothing donations to the Parish Center.
