2023 St. Therese of Lisieux Health Ministry Educational/Events

Some of the most important aspect of our roles as the St. Therese of Lisieux Health Ministry is to help maintain the physical, mental and spiritual health of our parishioners and community through preventative care, education, and support. In an effort to do this, a calendar of events is developed each year to meet the identified needs of our people.

Each month, the Health Ministry advertises in our church bulletin the events that will be taking place. But, since the calendar is done, I thought I would share it with you and it might be helpful to you to look ahead and jot down on your home calendar the events you are interested in. Please note, the events are always subject to change and new events added. So, please continue to look for the Health Ministry’s activities in our weekly bulletin. If you are signing up for an event, please remember to RSVP once the event is advertised. If you have any questions, feel free to call Marilyn Cito, Parish Nurse at 586-254-4433 Ext 320 or contact at MarilynC@stol.church (our email has changed).
