STUCK at home with no one to talk to?  TIRED of feeling useless, sad and lonely?  OVERWHELMED by the unrelenting demands of caring for a loved one?  UNSURE of what steps to take next to get help?

DID YOU KNOW THAT HELPING HANDS VOLUNTEERS ARE AVAILABLE to all parishioners for regular visits and calls if you, a friend or loved one, would like to talk with someone now and then, or need transportation to Mass or medical appointments - or errands?

DID YOU KNOW THAT HELPING HANDS VOLUNTEERS ARE AVAILABLE to provide respite to family caregivers by sitting with your loved one for a few minutes or a few hours to give you a break?

DID YOU KNOW THAT HELPING HANDS COORDINATORS ARE AVAILABLE to assist you in gathering the necessary information and assessing your options for ongoing skilled care when circumstances change because of declining health?

DID YOU KNOW THAT IT IS DIFFICULT AND HUMBLING FOR ALL OF US when we reach the point at which we must admit that we can't go it alone and do everything by ourselves any more?

DID YOU KNOW THAT HELPING HANDS VOLUNTEERS are standing by, eager to help and waiting for the opportunity to be answer to someone's prayer?  DID YOU KNOW THAT HELPING HANDS can't help you if we don't know who you are?  DID YOU KNOW THAT HELPING HANDS can't help you if you don't ask?

PLEASE CALL TODAY.  PLEASE HONOR US WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO HELP YOU:  Cathy Wedwick at 915-8456 or Pat Widlowski at 922-1395.

Parishioners:  Please consider taking a bulletin to those who can't get to church.  Encourage them to call Helping Hands for assistance.  Consider being a Helping Hands volunteer:  we always need drivers.
