DEACONS NEEDED FOR MINISTRY TO PEOPLE WITH MENTAL ILLNESS

The Archdiocesan Commission on Mental Illness and the program Faith and Fellowship are looking for Deacons to help with chaplaincy, outreach, and advocacy for people with mental illness and their families. On Saturday morning May the 10th we will have training for this ministry by Craig Rennebohm, a nationally known speaker who has an active street and church ministry to people with mental illness in Seattle, Washington.

 

Deacons and wives who are interested in this ministry are invited to join us for training even if it is only for ministry in your own parish. For more information contact Deacon Tom Lambert at Our Lady of Mt Carmel Parish 773-525-0453 x21 or email me at olmcinfo2@aol.com
