Pastoral Care

Pastoral Care Ministry assists parishioners with spiritual needs arising out of sickness, being homebound or grieving, including providing Holy Eucharist.

Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick

Parishioners ask us as Church, as their Community of Faith, to pray for their sick and dying. That’s why we name the members of our Parish Community in the General Intercessions at Mass, why we gather as family in home or hospital to celebrate the Sacrament of the Sick, why our pastoral ministers bring Communion to the sick, why we lovingly inscribe the names of our deceased in the Book of Remembrance beginning on All Saints Day each November.

Pastoral care and visiting our sick is a very important parish ministry here at Holy Spirit. To arrange for a visit, Communion or the Sacrament of the Sick, call our Pastoral Care Office (408-997-5110) or speak with Fr. Brendan.

Kitchen Angels

Kitchen Angels are a special group of people who provide helpers to take care of the kitchen and other food related duties for funeral receptions.
