Hope for Healing and Support
The Office of Marriage and Family Life curates resources for various areas of Hope for Healing and Support. Recently, the pastoral care of those experiencing miscarriage and infertility has become part of that collection at https://www.dosp.org/marriage-and-family/. Please share any resources that your parish has found particularly helpful in these ministerial areas with Diane Kledzik at dmk@dosp.org.
For the Faithful Departed
Let us keep the souls and the families of the faithful departed in our prayers:

  • Mrs. Gloria M. Temmer, mother of Mrs. Faith Eschenfelder, retired Benefits Coordinator, Pastoral Center



May their souls and the souls of all the faithful departed
by the mercy of God, rest in peace!
