Homeschooling Support
Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church is looking to start a homeschoolers support group. All Roman Catholic families who homeschool their children are encouraged to contact the parish office. We are seeking to create a support system for Catholic homeschoolers by having liturgies, and days of reflection. Please assist us by calling the parish office if you are interested in this proposed ministry
NOW ENROLLING COUPLES
Are you currently in need of a sacramental marriage? Many people who are catholic make the mistake of marrying through a civil union or outside of the catholic church. In order to be restored to the sacramental life and have the ability to receive the sacraments, a convalidation is necessary.
We are searching for couples who have entered into marriage through a civil union or marriage outside of the catholic church so that their marriage may be complete through the church. Please contact the parish office immediately to plan your marriage in the church.... Do not put it off any longer.
You are eligible to join our up coming marriage preparation program that is now forming if you are:
A baptized catholic desiring to marry for the very first time
A baptized currently married catholic, in a non recognized church marriage, desiring full communion with the catholic church through a properly recognized sacramental marriage
Are a catholic currently married civilly or outside the catholic church
Baptized and never been married, and seeking a catholic marriage
Please be advised that couples that have prior marriages whether inside or outside the catholic church must reconcile those marriages prior to a new marriage in the church. Depending on the individual case, a plan of action will be discussed with you.
Home Care Ministry
We are looking for caring persons to help take communion to the sick and homebound of our parish. If you are interested please call the rectory office and leave your name and number and we will get back with you as soon as possible. We are in need of many volunteers.
