Pastoral Care by Lay Persons

When the opportunity arises we have parishioners available to help those in need.  This could be to:

  • Provide a cooked meal to someone who is ill
  • Supply clothing from our Op Shop in  cases of need
  • Take an elderly or disabled person shopping when they are unable to make it on their own
  • Visit a sick person in hospital or at home
  • If church attendance is prevented by illness or frailty, arrange for Communion in the home
  • Provide recommendations and links to qualified crisis or bereavement counselling
  • Provide relief from simple domestic chores in needy situations

For advice or further assistance, or if you would like to help out, please contact Cynthia Keithly at sjgpewbulletin@gmail.com or call 9498 2744

Please let us know when you are in the hospital or rehab so you may be visited and prayed for.
