Bereavement Support

Mission

With the loss of a loved one comes various stages of grief, which time alone does not heal. OLA Ministers are available to listen, comfort and help you work toward healing your grief.

Meetings

All meetings are personal and confidential.

Group support is not offered through OLA, but we can refer you to those offerred in the Archdiocese.

Care Notes

Care Notes are little booklets which address change and coping. The booklets are inspirational, sensitive, and educational. The are published by Abbey Press. You will now find them in the Hall of Saints. Suggested donation is 75 cents per booklet. Please enclose donation in a provided envelope and drop in Rectory mail box. Do not leave donation in Hall of Saints.

Volunteer Opportunities

Please feel free to contact Barbara Arena, if you would like to be of support.
