August 1, 2022With the help of members of our St. Vincent de Paul conference, we have supplied the family with furniture and household goods. Members of the Knights of Columbus have provided the family transportation to doctors’ appointments, stores, and other errands to help them get settled. The Sisters of Providence and the OLG Immigrant Ministry group have provided generous financial support. Our OLG community will continue to support this family in practical ways by helping them apply for things like utility and rent assistance, helping them apply for legal aid, and providing transportation when needed. However, another important role is to provide community and welcome.
The OLG parishioners who have met the family have enjoyed getting to know them and spending time with them. As often happens when we reach out to help others, we find that the giving and receiving are mutual. Our visits always begin with the family serving us tea and traditional snacks like dried chickpeas and mulberries.
We ask you to keep this ministry in your prayers and consider donating online or supporting our upcoming pizza fundraiser. In addition, we can always use more volunteers. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Kathleen Sullivan (malusdomestica19@gmail.com).
