Stephen Ministry
The mission for the Holy Spirit Church Stephen Ministry is to bring Christ’s curing love to those in need through genuine care giving, assertively using Christian values, confidentiality, and prayer.

We all experience challenges in life — times when we could benefit from the support of a caring Christian friend. We have people ready, willing and able to give you one on one love and support. Could you use a friend, someone to talk to? A shoulder to lean on? Sometimes life throws us a curve. We may not know why, though we know there must be a reason. Have you lost a loved one? Do you or a family member have a serious illness? Having marital or children difficulties? Family relationship problems? Is there anything else causing you distress or testing your faith?

Please call for one of our trained, loving, caring confidential Stephen Ministers. The identity of those receiving care and what takes place in each caring relationship remains private. Contact Hazel at 299-3279, 288-4055 or Joe at 246-0566.

"Bear one another's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ" Galations 6:2.

Holy Spirit Military Family Support Group
Holy Spirit Parish is pleased to announce the formation of the Holy Spirit Military Family Support Group. The aim of this parish-based support group is to provide networking and prayer for military families and their active-duty military service members of Holy Spirit Parish. The HSMFSG will also recognize and honor our veterans.

During long-term deployments or training, family members may need to connect with a loving community of faith and support by way of prayer, networking and professional help.

To address this need, the HSMSG may:

• Form prayer groups
• Submit special intention requests for masses

• Send birthday or holiday “care packages” to deployed service members
• Send birthday or anniversary cards to their children or spouse
• Help families and family members with special needs during times of deployment

If you are a member of the military, a military family member or simply a parishioner who would like participate or join as a volunteer in this parish support group, please contact

The Pope urged the practice of Eucharistic Adoration in June of 2007 also, saying that the capacity for interior silence and recollection is ever more important in life that is often “noisy and scattered”. “There is an intrinsic connection between celebration and adoration. The holy Mass, in fact, is in itself the Church’s greatest act of adoration,” he added. “Adoration outside holy Mass prolongs and intensifies what happened in the liturgical celebration and renders a true and profound reception of Christ possible.”
