Ministry of Consolation

The most valuable gifts we can give are those that come from the heart. The precious gifts of our time, love, and compassion are especially needed during the time of the loss of a loved one. Created to provide warmth, caring, and personal atten-tion to assist families in preparation for the funeral Mass, this particular ministry can never have too many helping hands. Whether your interest be that of a Greeter, Lector, or EM, please give some though as to sharing your time and talents and being a part of this ministry’s call to love and care for one another. If you are considering volunteering for Ministry of Consolation and have questions about doing so or questions about what each position entails, please call the Parish Outreach at 516-541-1260. I would be happy to speak to anyone considering joining this group of wonderful volunteers that already belong to this Min-istry.

“We Care” Blankets

As our wonderful group of “Care Blanket” volunteers continue to meet on Wednesday mornings from 10:00-11:30am at Parish Outreach, the gifts of their love, time and talent in crocheting and knitting beautiful blankets for seriously ill children is nothing less than a beautiful thing!

Since our group began in November 2009, the com-pleted blanket count as of April 24 stands at 3,642. The “We Care Blankets” association has run in to some financial difficulty lately and have not been able to deliver yarn to our group that meet here at Our Lady of Lourdes. We would appreciate any dona-tions of 100% acrylic yarn so that this special group of ladies can continue their ministry. Donations can be dropped off at the Parish Outreach Office. Thank you!

"Whatever you do to the least of these, you do to Me."

Matthew 25:40

Our Parish depends solely on your generosity to meet each week’s expenses. Our regular Sun-day collections account for more than 60% of our operating budget. Your continued support, es-pecially during these difficult economic times, is both needed and appreciated.

Prayers for the Sick Let us continue to pray for peace.

Let us also pray for all those serving in the military or the peace corps.
