senior citizens and young families.
Parish outreach centers, including our food pantries,
assisted more than 100,000 families.
Our Office of Hospital Ministry served more than
300,000 people in local hospitals.
12,000 volunteer Catechists taught Religious Educa-
tion to more than 110,000 of our children in public
schools.
In our 133 Parishes there were more than 17,000
