Respite Care Ministry Have you ever been in the posi‐
tion of having to care for a loved one full time? Or do you have a friend who has? Have you won‐
dered how they got through it? Our new Respite Care Minis‐
try is one way of helping a full‐time caregiver cope. Through the ministry, caregivers get a sorely needed break. Through our parish Respite Ministry, a well‐trained adult parishioner comes to your home for a few hours, so that the caregiver can rest, leave to run errands, or in some other way have a time of refreshment. At the same time, the Respite Minister stays with the loved one and keeps him or her safe at no cost to the family. If you, or anyone you know, could be helped by this ministry, please contact Janet Gorman at 818‐4545 or Julie Hall at the Parish Office. Page 5 April 26, 2015 OLMC Parish News
