‘Amen, I say to you, as long as you did it for one of these, the least of My brethren, you did it for Me.’ (Matt;25,v40)
** The Matthew 25 Ministry officially launched in January 2015 with the goal to regularly visit the Catholic parishioners who reside in the local nursing homes and those who are homebound and unable to regularly attend Mass.
** We visit parishioners who live in Greens of Pinehurst, (formerly known as Manor Care), Quail Haven, Pinehurst Rehabilitation, Fox Hollow, Magnolia Gardens, Brookdale and Sandhills Memory Care and Seven Lakes Assisted Living and Memory Care and in addition to the homebound parishioners.
** This year alone, the ministry has grown from 10 to 52 volunteers and is proactively seeking to increase the number of volunteers to 80 to meet the basic needs of the ministry.
** With utmost joy, the ministry consists of families, singles, married couples and friends who share a mission to develop a relationship with our elderly parishioners as they share the love of the Catholic Church.
** The ministry has one overall COORDINATOR and he works with the CORE VOLUNTEERS. These CORE VOLUNTEERS manage the visitations at each individual nursing home and we have one CORE VOLUNTEER who manages all home visits. You, as a VISITING VOLUNTEER, will work directly with your CORE VOLUNTEER to pick the most appropriate resident.
** The ministry meets on the first Wednesday of odd-numbered months at 9:00 am at Sacred Heart Church. See our calendar for specifics or changes. We welcome new volunteers and would love to invite you to participate in this ministry.
** For information, please click on and complete the volunteer application on the sidebar. Your information will be shared with the COORDINATOR. We welcome you to our ministry of caring for our precious elderly.
As part of the Matthew 25 ministry, a new resource will be added to help parishioners understand senior living options.
A Senior Living Advisor will be available to provide support to parishioners and family members who are about to make a decision to enter a Long Term Care (LTC) facility, stay in their home or become more informed about resources offered in the community. This includes meeting with individuals who are in the hospital, rehabilitation facility or at home. This Ministry would provide guidance as well as resource material.
Discussions will be on a confidential and individual basis.
Recommendations will not be made by the Advisor but will provide resources and support in the decision making process.
The Advisor has worked in LTC for over 25 years. 13 years as Chairman of the Moore County Nursing /Assisted Living Home Advisory Committee and a Qualified North Carolina Activity Director in LTC.
