Pastoral Care Ministries

Funeral Ministry guides you through the funeral process and helps you make the proper arrangements. Please call for Norm Bross at normb@hfkparish.org.

Funeral Receptions are offered by the parish after funerals held at Holy Family.  Arrangements are made as part of the overall funeral planning process.  Volunteers are needed for staffing the reception as well as for providing food items.  Time commitment varies based on size and type of reception. For more information, contact Mary Joan Nash, maryjoannash@gmail.com.

Communion to Hospitals, Nursing Homes and the Homebound is provided by our Eucharistic Ministers and our Pastoral Care Ministers.  The time commitment each week is 1-2 hours depending on assignment(s). For more information, contact Betsy Staal, betsys@hfkparish.org.

Criminal Justice Ministry provides quality pastoral care and a healing presence to incarcerated men at the Washington State Reformatory in Monroe and to youth at Echo Glen or King County Juvenile Detention. For more information, contact Betsy Staal, betsys@hfkparish.org. 

Grief Ministry reaches out to parish families who have experienced the death of a loved one.  Ongoing grief ministry includes home visits when welcomed, support materials when requested and an eight-week Bereavement Support Group offered in the spring.  For more information, contact Betsy Staal, betsys@hfkparish.org.
