HOPE

HOPE (Helping Our People Everywhere): The HOPE process is an effort to live more fully as a parish and Christian community, the Gospel exhortation to “love one another” and Christ’s promise that “whatever you do to the least of my brothers, you do to Me.”


The uniqueness of the HOPE program lies in what happens to the money collected. First, a committee of volunteers meets to set ground rules on the distribution of funds. The committee is actually a search committee, to identify needs. Each request is reviewed and a determination made based on the available funds. We meet on the first Tuesday at 7PM in February, April, June, October, and December. Please contact the Rectory at 652.3972 if you have a project or are interested in participating in the group.
