Social Justice Committee
This group includes the Pro-Life Committee and Health Care Ministry. These volunteers serve God's people by having monthly food collections, assisting non-profit community agencies on a bi-monthly basis, and preparing and serving meals for the homeless. All their programs focus on putting corporal works of mercy into action. For the Food Drive, collections are held the first Sunday of each month in the church vestibule. Canned goods of all kinds, especially those having meat or a meat base, are especially needed.

The Parish Health Ministry is a group of individuals concerned with fellow parishioners as total beings. Our goal is to facilitate and coordinate health education and prevention. We assess the physical, social, mental, and environmental needs, and facilitate agencies and volunteers to meet those needs.

The Pro-Life Committee promotes pro-life awareness within the parish. Activities include the pro-life prayer calendar in the Adoration Chapel, coordination of special ceremonies on Pro-Life Sunday, and special collections for various pro-life organizations.
The Social Justice/ProLife Committee meets on the second Tuesday of each month.

Stewardship Committee
This committee develops and implements creative ideas that allow parishioners to volunteer time, talents, and treasure for the good of the parish and the glory of God. It also conducts a continuing program of stewardship education. The committee meets approximately five times per year.

Tree of Life Quilters
Bible Study and quilting are enjoyed by the group who meet on the first and third Wednesdays of each month, excluding summer months, from 7:00 to 9:00 P.M. We create lap robes for shut-ins.

Ushers
These volunteers greet parishioners coming to mass, collect offerings, pass out weekly bulletins, help with parking for special events and clean the church after services. They also carry out other various duties before and during Mass.
