We have just exited September which was busy, busy, busy in many ways through activities of the Knights of Columbus, Men's Club and Ladies of the Sacred Heart. Many people were involved in happenings that raised money and/or did good for others. I thank the Lord for all this and especially for the people who gave of themselves for the benefit of others, with those "others" often being people they don't even know. All the while, we have our "Helping Hands Ministry" reaching out daily to parishioners who have various needs which they cannot take care of or do on their own anymore.
I want to encourage those who have transportation issues, or are alone and could benefit from someone who could communicate with them on a daily or regular basis, to call one of our coordinators, Cathy Wedwick (915-8456) or Pat Widlowski (922-1395) to see if "Helping Hands" can help in these or in other ways. If you know of someone who is in need of "Helping Hands" services, please encourage them to call one of our coordinators, or you take the initiative to call Cathy or Pat with the name of the person in need and his or her contact information. I'd better also ask more of you who have some time and the heart of Christ, to offer to serve in our "Helping Hands Ministry." You will find your efforts not only helpful to some in need, but also a blessing for you in a number of ways.
Looking ahead, October looks busy in many ways. I pray you will share in the busyness and the blessings that come to those who participate in the ministries and activities that are happening in this wonderful parish!
