Our Lady Good Counsel

OUTREACH MINISTRY

Brothers and Sisters:

We are all experiencing higher prices at the gas pump, grocery stores, etc. Many of us are having to prioritize our householdexpenses and cut down on those 'extras'. Others of us are finding it difficult to make ends meet and are receiving HECO disconnect notices and finding their cupboards empty. The young and the elderly are especially impacted.

We have all heard the statement that 'God will never get us into anything we cannot do if we just ask for the help'. Asking for help can be very difficult, so we are coming to you this week to ask you to be our eyes and ears. If you know of an individual or family in need of our help, encourage them to contact our parish office. We are open Mondays and Thursdays, 9:00-11:45 am.

Our Outreach Ministry is appealing for support for our food pantry. Through all those years that we have set up the Outreach Ministry, many have been helped by our generosity and help. At present we are experiencing economic problems but still we can extend our helping hand to those who are in need. With your generous donations, we can make peoples' lives happy and put food on their table. May God in turn reward your love and support.
