Ss. Peter & Paul Parish
 

 

Health & Wellness

This ministry is designed to identify and address the continuous needs of our parish families through health education, counseling and spiritual support by linking the needs of the whole person to resources and services within the congregation, community and the health care system. The parish Health and services coordinator will work with existing committees such as Pastoral Care and St. Vincent de Paul to address their immediate needs and augment their services.  This group is part of the Christian Service Commission. 

Parish Nurse Notes

From the Diocese of Joliet

 The Center for Family Ministry recognizes how difficult it is for families that have experienced a painful transition such as divorce or death of a spouse.  One of the things that we do at The Center for Family Ministry is offer and promote programs to assist families as they experience the sorrowful times of their lives.  On that note, we would like to inform you about an upcoming event that you may wish to attend.

 On Saturday, March 20, 2010, The Center for Family Ministry is sponsoring a conference entitled, Risking Faith, Achieving Joy.  The day, exclusively for the divorced and widowed and those who care about them, features Father Tony Palazzolo.

 Father Tony is a consultant for the Family Life Office of the Diocese of St. Augustine in Florida, where he presents workshops and seminars on parenting, divorce adjustment, faith, relationships and other related subjects.  In 2008, he was awarded the James J. Young award by the Catholic Divorced Ministry for his many years of dedicated service to this ministry.

 The day will also include reflection, prayer, discussion, and some time for relaxation, and will end with a 4 p.m. Vigil Mass, celebrated by Bishop Imesch.   The requested $35.00 donation includes morning coffee, lunch, and materials.  You may register by calling The Center for Family Ministry (815-838-5334).  All faiths are welcome to come.
