St. Mary’s Support for the Bereaved Ministry was created in 1985. The members of this ministry reach out with a gentle hand to St. Mary’s families who experience the death of a loved one. The members of the bereavement support groups provide a meal for the family and their guests, at their home or in the parish hall. St. Mary's supplies the meat and the members prepare the vegetables and salads. The ministry works in teams of six, take turns, and serves approximately once a year. Currently, approximately 75 ladies and 5 gentlemen are sustaining this effort. This is a heartwarming and greatly appreciated ministry. It is a corporal work of mercy and you will be abundantly blessed.
