St. Rita Ministry, Holy Family Catholic Church (Domestic Violence Resource Ministry) at 5125 S. Apopka-Vineland Rd., Orlando, FL 32819 US - Community Outreach

Community Outreach

This page is dedicated to our community outreach efforts and volunteer opportunities within our parish and community. This is a new ministry to Holy Family Catholic Church, however our outreach and awareness efforts have evolved since October 2005 and will continue as we consider the needs of our parish community, family, friends, and the many women and children who need our help.

In order for our ministry to be successful we will need the help of volunteers. As a volunteer, you will have the satisfaction of knowing you are making a difference in our Parish community. Volunteers will help provide information, support and referral services. If you are compassionate, dependable, and looking for a challenging volunteer experience that will help you grow, please contact us.

Thank you and God bless.
