Catholic Charities recognizes that human beings, made in the image of God, experience health and wholeness when their physical, psychological, social, and spiritual needs are met. As an organization, we are committed to providing support to the whole person, and that is why we are developing initiatives and programs related to spiritual care. Our pastoral services are crafted in cooperation with the Diocese of Lansing in a way that is authentically Catholic, respecting the dignity and value of all those we serve and work with.
Eucharistic Outreach
Catholic volunteers from parishes around Washtenaw County bring Holy Communion to local hospitals and to care & correctional facilities. No prior experience as a Eucharistic minister is needed, training is provided, and the schedule is flexible. This service to our isolated brothers and sisters is simple, beautiful, powerful, and much needed. You can reach out to us at [email protected] to learn more about serving or to discuss adding a facility to our line-up.
Intercessory Prayer
Christians of all denominations are invited to join a team that lifts up the needs of our clients, our staff, and our programs. Prayer intentions are sent weekly via email to participants who are committed to confidentiality, consistency, and who have the charism of intercession. This behind-the-scenes service provides a powerful support to the efforts of Catholic Charities. With God, all things are possible! Reach out to us at [email protected] to get started.
