Health and Healing Ministry


The objectives of the Health and Healing Ministry include promotion and support of health and healing among the members of the St. Peter Church community through health education, referral, and spiritual support. Focus areas include:
  • Communion for the Homebound – Trained Eucharistic Ministers take communion to those parishioners unable to attend Mass due to chronic illness, recent surgery, or for those on chemotherapy. We are always looking for more people willing to take Communion to those who are sick or homebound.
  • Hospital – Trained Eucharistic Ministers take Communion to Catholic patients in Memorial North Hospital. We welcome more people willing to take Communion to those who are hospitalized. Call Beth at 719-282-8247 for more information.
  • Meals to Those in Need – Volunteers bring Christ to others in their times of trial and difficulty by providing home-cooked meals for parish families welcoming new babies, those who are homebound, suffering loss, or facing other life challenges.
  • Prayer Pants – The Prayer Pants Ministry is a ministry in conjunction with Restore Innocence.  Restore Innocence is a program that works with the police who rescue girls from sex trafficking.  When they are rescued, all they have is the clothing on their back, which is usually needed for evidence.  This ministry prays for these girls as we sew flannel lounge pants to be included in a Restoration Hope Bag so that when they are rescued, they have a comfortable pair of pants to change into. The pants are lovingly and prayerfully made to let the girls know that they are a beloved child of God.  We also hope to raise awareness that sex trafficking is rampant in our country today and is happening in our own back yard.
  • Prayer Shawl – Volunteers hand knit or crochet shawls and lap robes that are given to people who are experiencing grief, illness, sadness, loneliness, or any other situation when the gift of love and prayer would be helpful and comforting.
  • Stephen Ministry – Stephen Ministers are lay Christians who receive a minimum of 50 hours of training and continuing education to equip them to provide confidential one-on-one Christian care to those in our community who are experiencing difficulty. A Stephen Minister typically meets with his or her (same sex) care receiver about an hour per week to listen, pray, support, encourage, and “be there” as long as needed.
