Assisting Those in Crisis
The Corpus Christi Assistance Ministry is always in need of your generous donations to our pantry, particularly non-perishable shelf-stable supplies. They also have a need for laundry and dish detergent and toilet paper. Items can be dropped off at the ministry office in the old church Tuesday-Thursday from 9-11 AM or anytime into the drop box next to the building. In addition to this, Assistance Ministry can always use monetary donations. If giving a monetary donation, please make checks payable to Corpus Christi Assistance Ministry. It's because of you that Assistance Ministry is able to help as many people as they do, and we thank you for the bottom of our hearts!

Below are the following changes and what they'll mean for you:

Family Planning Awareness week. The dates of Natural Family Planning Awareness Week highlight the anniversary of the papal encyclical Humanae Vitae (July 25) which articulates Catholic beliefs about human sexuality, conjugal love, and responsible parenthood. The dates also mark the feast of Saints Joachim and Anne (July 26), the parents of the Blessed Mother. Pope Francis has designated that feast as World Grandparents Day, a fitting commemoration during National NFP Awareness Week!
