Outreach Ministry
The Bread of Life Outreach Ministry
(BOLOM) is the umbrella
for all the parish’s outreach. We mainly direct
our efforts helping the needy in the Johnson
County and Center Grove areas.
Our
ministry’s efforts are divided into:
Planned Assistance-Scheduled
collections of food, clothing, needed items
Emergency Assistance-Helping those
in need of financial assistance (rent,
utilities, food, etc.)
Mission Planning-Develop and
coordinate the parish mission trip to Kentucky.
Help underwrite expenses.
Our yearly
mission trip to Kentucky is a phenomenal
experience.

The BOLOM’s Mission
is:

Respect Life Committee
Chairpersons: Dean &
Kim Stecher, 422-8856
The
general purpose of the Committee is to make
parishioners more aware of the pro-life issues
and needs, and to recruit volunteers to help
meet those needs. Pro-life issues include
but are not limited to abortion, infanticide,
euthanasia, capital punishment, AIDS, hunger,
social and economic justice, persons with
disabilities, housing, post-abortion
reconciliation, peace, health, civil rights, and
environment. We believe that all human
life is sacred.
