 Friends of the Holy Family Special Needs Group

As a parish family, we value all lives and work to ensure that those with special needs are welcomed and able to participate in the life of the Church. In the Friends of the Holy Family Ministry, we do this by….

• Connecting at special events and our mom’s support group;

• Advocating so our members can participate fully in the faith; 

• Sharing resources to support the faith of those with special needs.

Together, we navigate the world of disabilities with the Catholic faith as our guide.
