Sometimes there is a need by a homebound parishioner for some simple housekeeping or a meal once a week. Other times there is a need for your time and talents to help finish a project here at the parish. If you are willing and able to help, let Fr. Perrone know your talents and availability and he can include you on the list of those he contacts via email or phone when the need arises. It might be something that is a onetime event or something that is done as often as you are able. Email Fr. Perrone at grottorectory@ameritech.net.
