Ministers of Care
(Ministry to the Homebound/Hospitalized )

Ministers of Care are specially trained and commissioned lay people who take Holy Communion to the sick and homebound of St. Mary's. Ministers of Care visit Lake Forest Hospital, local nursing homes, and parishioners homes.

Ministers of Care are the living witness that St. Mary's has not forgotten the absent sick, the invisible elderly and unseen sufferers. A minister of Care is a sign that God is and wants to be with them.

Please let us know if there is someone who is confined to home and unable to attend Mass with us in our Parish Church on Sunday. We would be happy  to bring Communion. Just call the rectory office at 234-0205 to make arrangements .

We need more ministers of care. If you think God calling you, please contact Janet Peters at (847) 234-0205.
