SJN is forming a Outreach Program to the Elderly/Homebound of our Parish. Fliers are available in the Narthex containing a Form for those who may be interested in volunteering and another Form for those who may benefit from the Homebound Outreach Program.

Visits will be every other week and will occur in a private home, nursing home, or assisted living facility.  Volunteers will/may provide Eucharist, friendly visits and telephone assurance to our clients.  

If you are interested in being involved with this Ministry as a Volunteer, please complete the Volunteer Form and return it to the office. If you have a family member or are aware of a fellow parishioner who would benefit from this Outreach Ministry, please complete the Client Intake Form and one of our coordinators will contact the individual.

Orientation will be scheduled in the near future.

Protect Pollinators!  Bees, butterflies, and other key pollinators are necessary for most of our major food crops.  Honey bees pollinate 80 percent of all flowering plants alone, including more than 130 types of fruits and vegetables.  According to Farmers.gov, the ecological service provided by pollinators is valued at $200 billion each year.

Unfortunately, bee populations have dropped alarmingly across North America, as have the populations of may other pollinator species.  They are in serious decline due to exposure to parasites, pesticides, disease, habitat loss and other environmental contaminants.  If we all dedicate just a small area to protecting habitats for pollinators, using native plants and sustainable gardening practices, we can help safeguard our common home.  

Help us with our pollinator habitat!  
The parish is invited to help plant the pollinator habitat after the 10 am mass on Sunday May 25.
