Ministries of Mercy

  • Caritas

    Caritas is our community outreach ministry to the elderly, infirmed, homebound and bereaved of the parish.


    Our services include:


    1) COMMUNION CALLS - If you are unable to attend Mass due to illness, a Eucharistic Minister will bring Communion to your home.

    2) CARE MASS - Homebound parishioners are invited to our Tuesday morning mass and luncheon. Transportation is provided by our volunteers.

    3) PRAYER LINE - Our members pray for your special intentions.

    4) NEW BEGINNINGS - Our bereavement support group. Meetings are held on the first Saturday of every month, at 10 a.m., September though May.

    5) MARTHA MINISTRY - Our volunteers attend funeral Masses to support the grieving families.

    6) VISITS - We visit 9 assisted living/nursing homes.


    Caritas also serves Advent Heath North Pinellas (Florida Hospital North Pinellas/Helen Ellis Hospital).
