"Behold, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal them; and I will reveal to them an abundance of peace and truth."
Jeremiah 33:6
The Health & Homebound Ministry is adult women and men of the parish of any profession who desire to care for the sick and homebound. We respond to the spiritual and emotional needs of sick and homebound parishioners and their families. We also provide general health and wellness information to educate the parish community.
The Health & Homebound Ministry promotes good health and wellness to the parish community through the Annual Health Fair and other special activities. The Homebound Minister serves as an advocate for the homebound and physically challenged parishioners by coordinating ride-share to attend Masses, and scheduling home visits for receiving the Holy Eucharist. We offer training to bring Communion to the homebound.
Emmaus Walk is the Mental Health Ministry of St. Augustine Catholic Church. Part of the mission of Emmaus Walk is to respond to the call of addressing the emotional needs of our community with love and support by providing assessment, triage, and referral services to our members who find that the stress of meeting the challenges of life have created distress, and life feels overwhelming.
