Can't make time to serve but want to donate? Consider making a financial contribution to support the committee:
The mission of the Human Needs committee is to inspire the parish community to live out the Gospel and act in ways that make the worlds of peace, justice and mercy integral to their daily lives. The role of the committee is to provide oversight and coordination for parish service projects. As such, the committee will establish processes, communication channels, allocate resources, and provide assistance to ministry leaders in order to work together to make a difference at St. Patrick's and in the surrounding communities.
The St. Patrick's Community is called to be like Jesus; and as Mark wrote "for the Son of man came not to be served but to serve,
and to give his life as a ransom for many." (Mark 10:35)
