The mission of Walking with Moms in Need is to provide spiritual, personal, and material support and mentoring to local pregnant and parenting mothers in need. We identify and share local resources with these mothers. As Pope Francis reminds us, our parishes are called to be “islands of mercy in the midst of a sea of indifference”. We want women facing challenging pregnancies to see St. Mary Parish as a place where they can find hope and help.
In the Gospel of Life, St. John Paul II challenged us:
“With great openness and courage, we need to question how widespread is the culture of life today among individual Christians, families, groups and communities in our Dioceses. With equal clarity and determination we must identify the steps we are called to take in order to serve life in all its truth.” (EV 95)
In answer to this call to better serve struggling pregnant and parenting women in our local community, St Mary Hudson has developed an organization which offers spiritual and emotional support for women in need while connecting them with resources in the community to meet the woman’s needs, on an individual basis. This ministry is free and confidential.
Our Walking with Moms in Need ministry is currently recruiting compassionate women who are willing to help moms at this difficult time. If you would like to volunteer your time and talents to this worthy cause, please fill out this form:
