Health & Homebound

The Health & Homebound Ministry is adult women and men of the parish of any profession who desire to care for the sick and homebound. We respond to the spiritual and emotional needs of sick and homebound parishioners and their families. We also provide general health and wellness information to educate the parish community.

Are you, or someone you care about, currently facing health challenges or finding it difficult to leave home? Our Health & Homebound Ministry is dedicated to providing compassionate support and connection to members of our community during these times. Whether you could benefit from a friendly visit, receiving Holy Communion at home, a supportive phone call, or simply knowing someone is praying for you, we are here to help. Please reach out to Dr. Janet Johnson at [email protected] to learn more about how our ministry can serve you.

The Health & Homebound Ministry's collection of donated medical equipment is critically important for our St. Augustine community. This initiative provides direct, practical support to church and school members facing illness, injury, or mobility challenges by making essential items like walkers, wheelchairs, or bath aids accessible. It is especially important for those who may struggle with costs or only need temporary assistance. 

It's a powerful expression of communal care, easing burdens for individuals and families, promoting independence and dignity, and ensuring that gently used resources directly benefit those in need within our church and school family.
