Our resources for the homebound are to help parishioners who are unable to leave their residence, for short or long term, by providing regular homebound visits and home Communion.
All volunteers for this ministry, complete the Diocese of Madison Safe Environment program with a background check.
If you’re seeking any of these resources or more information, please contact the Pastoral Care Office at (608) 231-4617. You can also complete the form below and our pastoral staff will contact you soon.
Home Communion Ministry
Our Home Communion Ministry is here to bring Communion every Sunday, after 8:00am Mass, to those who are physically unable to assemble with the congregation, such as sick or aging parishioners. Our volunteers, called Extraordinary Ministers, also deliver Communion to retirement communities, nursing homes, and assisted living facilities. We can even train family members to bring Communion to their loved ones.
Pastoral Care Visitor
Our visitors provide pastoral care to isolated parishioners such as praying together, sharing faith, catching up on current events or just getting to know one another. These visits are arranged at the mutual convenience of the homebound person and the pastoral care visitor.
