Our chief goals
are to raise awareness of social justice issues, and to encourage and
participate in direct service projects. That covers a lot of territory, and
gives us plenty to keep us busy and involved. Each of these goals encompasses
several objectives.
If you are interested, we’d be glad to have you
aboard.
Just call Sr. Lucille at 587-6507 during office hours.

Visit the Hospitalized, Sick, & Homebound
Volunteers from St Anastasia parish bring communion to the Hutch Hospital
every
day. If you or a loved one are
in the hospital and wish to receive communion you must notify the hospital
staff. Our volunteers try very hard to not miss anyone, but they really need
your help. Thanks!
We need people to visit those sick, homebound, or in the hospital. Volunteers
may bring communion, pray the rosary or other common prayers, read Scripture, or
just chat for a short time. To request a visit, or to volunteer as a visitor,
contact Sr. Lucille.

 St.
Anastasia Tithing Program
St. Anastasia’s Tithing Program exists to serve the financial, emotional, and
spiritual needy of St. Anastasia and the surrounding community by providing
economic support to programs, whether internal or external to St. Anastasia,
which address such needs, and to give back to God from our first fruits. For fiscal year
2010-11, 4% of all contributions made to the church will be tithed
to organizations that fulfill the guidelines of the Parish Tithing Program.
