Family Ministry
Prayer for Priest Ministry
The Lord commanded us to pray for vocations to the priesthood and religious life, “Ask the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers for the harvest.” (Mt. 9:38)
We are asking each family to call our office to sign-up to take the Vocations Prayer Cross home for ten days. The Prayer Cross is contained inside a case that you will pick up from our office. Your family will have the privilege during that time to set up the cross in your home, pray together for our priests, and pray for an increase to vocations to the priesthood and religious life. You will be provided with your own personal copies of the Vocation’s Prayer booklets that you may keep in order to continue praying for our priests and for vocations. The prayer booklet given to you with the kit is self-explanatory. It includes a family prayer, prayer for priests, Litany of the Saints and a prayer to Our Lady of Prompt Succor.

Mercy Works/Helping The Poor
“Fatima Mercy Works”, formerly St. Vincent DePaul, chose for their sponsor Blessed Theresa of Calcutta, who urged all Catholics to “do something beautiful for God.”
Jesus taught that whenever we feed the hungry, clothe the naked, visit the sick or imprisoned we do it for Him. Desiring to live out Christ’s command and in order to deepen the faith of our entire parish, Fatima Mercy Works will bring His love to those in need in ways that allow all parishioners to participate, so that bonds of unity can be created and sustained among our parish families and those we serve.
To join please call the Parish Office, (337) 232-8945 X121, Deacon Tim Maragos or email at [email protected]
