Q: What is the purpose of your ministry?
St. Catherine's Embrace is an outreach group to help families that have gone through the loss of a baby, whether it was a miscarriage (at any stage) or a still birth. We want to help those families know that they aren't alone. We would like to deliver a Keepsake Box filled with donated items and resources to those families. We also continually pray for those who have lost a child.
Q: How frequently do you meet?
We meet at different times throughout the year.
Q: How does someone become involved?
Please call the Rectory.
Q: Are you ever in need of volunteers?
We are always looking for volunteers to assist us with this ministry by delivering Keepsake Boxes or praying for those who are suffering. There would be a 30-60 minute volunteer training session.
Q: How long has the ministry been serving the parish?
We have been around since 2019.Q: How do you communicate activities with the Parish?
We have a Facebook page called St. Catherine's Embrace or find us on our website at https://stcatherinesembrace.org/. Each parish has their own representative/committee in our county.Sara Verhoff
