Outreach Ministries

Here at St. Mary Parish we are very fortunate to have a Funeral Luncheon Committee. When a member passes away and the funeral is at St. Mary, our luncheon committee will offer to the family a room to use for gathering after the burial. 

If the family brings the food, the committee will provide food servers, arrange tables and chairs and clean up.

If the family has the food catered, the committee will provide 2 or 3 volunteers to arrange tables and chairs and clean up as well as assist when needed.

The committee will also provide desserts, paper table service, coffee, tea or lemonade, creamer and sugar, condiments and chips. A list will be made of dishes brought in from family and friends. The committee will package leftovers for the family to take home or donate to the Sharing Kitchen.  

* No alcoholic beverages are permitted.

Volunteers at St. Vincent de Paul help some of our communities neediest citizens.  Members meet with "neighbors" to determine their needs twice a month usually on Tuesdays from 1 - 3 pm.  The committee meets once a month in the evening.  We have several different ways for individuals to help.  You could become part of the committee that plans fundraisers or help with screening for financial assistance with utilities or rent. 

Local shelter for women & children. Always in need of your time, treasure or talents. Our Parish family provides meals, training (how to cook a meal, garden, budget, etc) and fellowship for any kids in the center.

If you are interested in visiting homebound parishioners or take them Holy Communion, please contact the Parish Office 419-447-2087.

Our blessing box is on site and in constant need of food and hygiene items for our neighbors in need.
