News from Foster Care Support Ministry
This new ministry, which hopes to offer an array of supportive
mentoring relationships, donations,
services and mechanisms for Foster Parents in the north-east
valley, began with a Come and See
breakfast on March 23rd. What a joy to see quite a strong number
of parishioners there to see how
they could help!
That morning also saw Marie Cancella take on her new role as
Leader of the ministry, supported by
teammate Anne Johnson. Please feel free to offer our new
ministry team leaders Marie and Anne
your congratulations at [email protected] (for Anne) at

Eucharistic Adoration Ministry
The Eucharistic Adoration Ministry consists of indi-
viduals who have committed to a specific hour of prayerbetween
9AM and 8PM on either Mondays or Wednes-
days each week. If your Ministry would like to commit
to having people pray in the Blessed Sacrament Chapel
at a specific hour on either of those two days, please
contact Rosemary Cudzewicz at 480-513-1762 for more
information.
As the heat intensifies so does the need for water for our
neighbors who thirst.
Once again, our community will be collecting water curbside
before and after all Masses from May 4through June 30. The water we
collect is taken to hydration centers and distributed to the
homeless,elderly and disabled by outreach teams from Basic Mission,
Catholic Charities, Salvation Army andStand up for Kids just to
name a few.
Last year we engaged various ministries to coordinate each Mass
collection (with the help of a WaterDrive coordinator for
guidance). As a Ministry Leader, we want to invite you to consider
involving yourministry to take part in the collection.only ONE Mass
with time spent before and after Mass. Familiesare welcome! We
found the children are very helpful and good thankers to those who
donate!
The drive was very successful last year and we established a
goal this year of 100,000 bottles of water!!With the help of your
ministry, this goal is attainable and we will be helping save the
health and lives of
our neighbors who thirst during the heat of our desert
summers.
Matthew 25:35 .. I was thirsty and you gave me something to
drink..For more information, please contact Cheryl K@480-998-3843
