The Immaculate Heart of Mary young adult ministry was founded to help our young men, women, and families to grow in friendship and holiness. Through opportunities of service, fun, and prayer we build friendships with one another, grow through hands on service in our greater community, and further develop our individual relationships with Christ. Our ministry spans from ages 22-39 and we will often partner with the young adult organizations throughout the diocese to offer exposer to our greater young adult Catholic community.
Opportunities
Greater Minneapolis Crisis Nursery: 4544 4th Ave S, Minneapolis, MN 55419
Cook for Kids
The Crisis Nursery in Minneapolis works to assist families in times of need and crisis. Oriented toward ending Child abuse, the Nursery focuses on prevention by offering free, voluntary services for parents who face barriers such as unemployment, homelessness, medical or mental health concerns, poverty, domestic violence, or other difficult situations. Much of their services involves free daycare for children allowing parents to address their crisis.
We support the Nursery by purchasing groceries, preparing meals, and sharing those meals with the children they service. It’s an incredible opportunity to not only offer time and treasure but to work directly with the people you are serving. These kids often need strong examples in their lives and your love and compassion will have a huge impact. We take a team of up to 6 volunteers and usually prepare 25 servings.
Next volunteer date: Sat, January 26, 2019, 4pm – 6pm
