Human Concerns
Many Thanks, needs repeating Parents picked up
their Jesse Tree gifts on December 12th.
The
families were overwhelmed and some brought to
tears with the love and generosity shown to them.
Through the Jesse Tree program we provided many
gifts for over 100 children in our area. Our Lady of
Lourdes School families donated stockings
overflowing with toys, hats, gloves and games.
There were many donations for stocking stuffers left
over and we put them to very good use providing
stockings for about 20 more children. We also
provided presents for 20 residents at Manor Care
nursing home. Our school donated 358 bags of food
for 19 families and I still can’t get over it. I am still
hearing from the families saying how blessed they
were and what a feast they enjoyed.
OLL
parishioners provided Thanksgiving Baskets for 60
families. You blessed us with plenty of food to share
with the community and they were very thankful.
We can’t thank you enough for your kindness and
interest in helping those in needs. God bless you all.

La Oficina del Ministerio Hispano y la Oficina del Ministerio Social quiere
promover nuestro ministerio social. Nos gustaría que todos nuestros
hermanos y hermanas de Cristo se vuelvan un solo cuerpo para ayudar a
los más necesitados. Como ha dicho el Papa Francisco “Todos tenemos el
deber de hacer el bien ", porque “no podemos preocuparnos de nosotros
mismos”. Actualmente tenemos el Ministerio de cárcel y el Ministerio de
Migrantes, lo cuales necesitan nuestras manos y corazones para poder
seguir ayudando a nuestros hermanos.
El papel en los diferentes ministros incluye:
- Sesión de entrenamiento y aprendizaje
- Visitar a los trabajadores migrantes y prisioneros
- Colaborar en el ropero y la despensa de comida en la parroquia
- Colectar recursos para distribuir a los que servimos
- Planear los eventos y coordinar para adquirir fondos
Ministerio Social - Entrenamiento
La Oficina del Min. Hispano junto con la Oficina Min. Social organizan estos
cursos para obtener el certificado e implementar en las parroquias con
comunidades hispana el min. social. Va dirigidos para atender mejor las
necesidades de la comunidad inmigrante, igual que, el ministerio del migrante
servirá para colaborar con otras parroquias donde se trabaja con los campesinos
migrantes durante la temporada de cosechas.
Inscripción antes del 1 de enero será de $15 por los dos cursos, después del 1 de
enero será de $25 por los dos cursos.
