Care Ministry

The presence of a person who cares can brighten one’s day. Through our visitation program, trained volunteers support those in need with kind and caring conversation and a gentle presence. Parishioners receive training through the parish in order to better understand how best to be present to others. Those meeting with parishioners under the age of 18 must also receive Virtus® training through the Diocese of Green Bay.

Care Ministry Assistance
Parish Care Ministers are available to assist parishioners in any or all of the following:

• Bringing Holy Communion
• Visiting homebound
• Talking and listening
• Praying together
• Being a friend

Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteers receive the names and circumstances of parishioners who would appreciate a friendly visit. These visits might include a hospital visit, consistent visits to nursing home parishioners, or visits during challenging times to show support.

Time Commitment
Varied: It could be a periodic one-time visit or consistent visits on a regular basis to those in need of continued support.
