Dear Friends in Christ,

One of the truly beautiful ministries in the Church is the ministry of bringing Holy Communion to those who are in the hospital or to those who can no longer get to church. People are so grateful to receive this Sacrament especially when their health is failing. It brings such comfort and strength at a very difficult time in life. For the person bringing Holy Communion, it is an incredible blessing to be the minister of God’s loving presence and grace. Seven days a week I am the on call priest during the day at Legacy Salmon Creek Medical Center. Every Monday I am on call for 24 hours at both Legacy Hospital and Peace Health. Legacy Hospital in Salmon Creek is in need of a few more Catholics who would be willing to bring Holy Communion to Catholic patients at the hospital. Please let me know if you would be willing to participate in this important ministry. The hospital has training sessions planned for this November. If interested, please contact me so that I can write for you a letter of recommendation to get the process started. I would deeply appreciate you joining me in this most rewarding and much needed ministry.

I want to thank you for your financial support of the parish. Please complete your yearly pledge card today and place it in the collection basket during the offertory of the Mass. Your support of the parish is deeply appreciated.

Peace+

Fr. Tom

Queridos amigos en Cristo,

Uno de los ministerios verdaderamente hermosos en la iglesia es el ministerio de llevar la Santa Comunión a los que están en el hospital o a los que ya no pueden ir a la iglesia. La gente está muy agradecida de recibir este Sacramento, especialmente cuando su salud está fallando. Aporta tanta comodidad y fortaleza en un momento muy difícil de la vida. Para la persona que trae la Santa Comunión, es una bendición increíble ser el ministro de la amorosa presencia y gracia de Dios. Siete días a la semana, soy el sacerdote disponible durante el día en el Legacy Salmon Creek Medical Center. Todos los lunes estoy de guardia las 24 horas en el Legacy Hospital y en Peace Health. Legacy Hospital en Salmon Creek necesita a algunos católicos más que estén dispuestos a llevar la Santa Comunión a los pacientes católicos en el hospital. Por favor, avíseme si estaría dispuesto a participar en este importante ministerio. El hospital tiene sesiones de entrenamiento planificadas para este mes de noviembre. Si están interesados, contáctenme para escribirles una carta de recomendación para que comiencen el proceso. Apreciaría profundamente que me acompañen en este ministerio tan gratificante y tan necesario.

Quiero agradecerles por su apoyo financiero a la parroquia. Por favor complete su tarjeta de compromiso anual y colóquela en la canasta de recolección hoy durante el ofertorio de la Misa. Su apoyo a la parroquia es profundamente apreciada y volarada.

Paz +

Padre Tom
