Special Thanks to Joy Katilus for organizing the screenings. Joy loved “The Chosen” and wanted to make sure everyone had a chance to see the show. She took the initiative to schedule the screenings, get the DVDs, do the set-up and buy the snacks. Again, thank you Joy, and thanks also to her family who she recruited into helping!
Family #7 Men’s Group
Srodowisko (Polish for environment, borrowed from Pope John Paul II, who had a group of friends in college who called themselves this).
The next Men’s Group Ministry will be held on February 20th from 630pm – 8:00pm, at the 14 Holy Helpers convent
Our subject matter will be strengthening men, strengthening families, community ministry and growing in relationship with Christ.
Men of all faiths are welcome! We are keeping it open to people outside of the Catholic faith although if it ends up being primarily Catholics we’ll shift that direction over time.

Support those who Support Us
We have been blessed to enjoy the support of our local business community over the past year. They have provided our parish, and the events and services we produce, with money, products, and services donations. Through their generous donations we have been able to generate needed revenue to work toward our mission and serve the local community.
Due to the recent coronavirus health crisis, many businesses have been forced to either temporarily close or operate in a restricted environment. Even those not as directly impacted have had to operate in a new world of social distancing, working environment cleansings, or managing a remote work force. Our supporting businesses stood up to help 14 Holy Helpers when we called … Businesses that Support 14 Holy Helpers LINK. Please consider supporting them with your patronage when you are in need of the goods or services that they provide to the community. Thank them and let them know that 14 Holy Helpers appreciates their support.

Making your payments on-line is easy. You can access our on-line system by clicking the blue Offering button found in the right hand column of our Home Page (see button below).
