Bereavement Ministry Needs You!

Our Lady of Hope Parish needs compassionate friends who want to offer comfort to help their fellow parishioners who are dealing with overwhelming grief by reaching out to them throughout the first year of their loss, with correspondence and/or phone calls and through ongoing prayers for them and for the repose of the souls of their departed loved ones.

If you’ve experienced the loss of loved ones, you are aware of the pain that takes hold of those left behind. Please prayerfully consider helping to bring hope to our grieving parishioners who are mourning the loss of loved ones who have been called to their new life in heaven, through the resurrection of Jesus.

For more information, or to join our Parish Bereavement Ministry, please contact Connie Burzinske at 860-496-0708, or by email at cburzins@aol.com.

As in the past, this year's efforts will create new opportunities and expand existing services for those living and working within the Northern, Western, and Southern Vicariates.  Additionally, the Appeal ensures the funding necessary so that our vital ministries, seminarians, retired clergy, catholic schools and agencies continue to thrive serving thousands throughout the Archdiocese.
