No one should ever feel forgotten by their parish family. The Homebound Ministry exists to make sure that those who are unable to attend Mass due to illness, age, or physical limitation remain connected to the sacramental life of the Church and to the community that loves them.
Trained volunteers and parish ministers visit homebound parishioners in their homes, care facilities, and hospitals, bringing with them the Body of Christ in Holy Communion, a listening ear, and the warmth of genuine Christian friendship. These visits are a reminder that the Church does not end at the doors of the sanctuary. Christ himself goes out to those who cannot come to him.
For families caring for a loved one who is homebound, this ministry can also be a source of comfort and relief, knowing that their family member is being spiritually nourished and personally remembered by their parish community.
If you feel called to bring Christ to those on the margins of parish life, we invite you to prayerfully consider volunteering with the Homebound Ministry. No special background is required, only a willing heart and a love for the people of God.
If you or someone you know would benefit from a homebound visit or the reception of Holy Communion at home, please reach out to the parish office. It would be our honor to come to you.
