For our Lord commissions us in Matthew 25:36,40
"I was sick and you visited Me, I was in prison and you came to Me. Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these, My brothers, you did it to Me."

And in Hebrews 13:1-3

"Let brotherly love continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them; and those who are ill-treated as if you yourselves were suffering."

The CARE CARD Ministry is an outreach which provides beautiful, individualized, home-crafted cards with an inspirational message to those who are institutionalized or isolated in hospital, care homes, or alone at home.

CARE CARDS are made by parishioners of all ages, who work individually or as families, students in classrooms, children in sacramental prep groups, and by youth on retreats.

CARE CARD Ministers reconstitute old Christmas cards, last year's Catholic calendar, or cards with biblical quotes and pictures of Jesus, Mary, and the Saints. They are then distributed at Christmas, Easter, Valentine's Day, and/or can be tucked inside a Prayer Shawl.

Completed cards can be dropped off at the CTK parish office during office hours or given to the hospitality minister at the Hospitality Desk.

If you are interested in participating in this vital outreach, please email Linda.
