Donate To Our Annual Appeal
Christ has no body now but yours. No hands, no feet on earth but yours. Yours are the eyes through which he looks compassion on this world. Yours are the feet with which he walks to do good. Yours are the hands through which he blesses all the world. Yours are the hands, yours are the feet, yours are the eyes, you are his body. Christ has no body now on earth but yours.”

Visit The Imprisoned
Problem- There are over 2.3 million people incarcerated in our country. Some are “imprisoned” by mental illness and addiction.
Solution – We have several members of staff and church leaders who visit prisoners and take them gifts and send well wishes from the community. We also offer counseling to those “imprisoned” by mental illness and addiction. No one is perfect and without need of forgiveness.

Visit The Sick
Problem - Those who are sick are often forgotten or avoided.
Solution - SSM Health and Cardinal Community House have partnered with Catholic Charities to provide a respite shelter for recently discharged patients who are homeless. This service provides them a place to recuperate, while our case management program allows them to find transitional housing once they are released from respite care.

Bury The Dead
Problem – There are some people without the financial means to bury their loved ones.
Solution - Catholic Charities has gifted burial plots for those who did not have the financial means. The bodies of the dead must be treated with respect and charity, as it honors the children of God who are temples of the Holy Spirit. Our chapel has also hosted memorial services for clients and for those who have a lost a loved one.
