CALL TO DIACONATE
Please see below a video that has been developed by the Office of Vocations and particularly the Office of Diaconate Formation. Please click HERE WALKING WITH MOMS IN NEED Walking with Moms in Need is a process through which Catholic parishes and communities "walk in the shoes" of local pregnant and parenting women in need. Everyone should know how to help moms in difficult circumstances. While not trying to turn Catholic parishes into pregnancy centers, we can support local pregnancy centers where they exist, and we can also find and share other resources with pregnant and parenting women. St. Matthew's, Christ the King & St. Thomas Parishes have joined efforts to work together to help Moms in need. For more information please call the Parish Office or watch the video below.
