JOB DESCRIPTION -
We are encouraging you to come early to church in each of the masses of your choice to have a complete and full participation of the Holy Eucharist. If by any chance and due to unavoidable circumstances you arrive late for the Holy Mass and the Liturgy of the Word has already began, the Hospitality ministers would ask you to stand and stay put at the back until the reading (1st reading or Responsorial Psalm or 2nd Reading or Gospel) is done. Then the Hospitality ministers will usher you to an empty spot in the congregation. This is to give respect to the Word of God being proclaimed. Your consideration and understanding on this matter is greatly appreciated.Read More

Do not lose your hope.
There are church services in our diocese that are willing to extend their assistance to you for free. They will be ready to talk to you and give you many options to make your life better. If you are planning to opt for abortion, we can assure you that that is not the last resort to make your life better. You cannot solve a problem or mistake by doing another mistake in your life.

Their lives were never been the same again and their right decision to keep their babies made them a better person. They do not only help to save the baby but also help the future mothers to undergo a psychological assistance to cope up with the fear of making the right decision that is choosing LIFE. To know more of their services kindly go to this link: https://saclife.org/ You may e-mail them also: [email protected] or call them: (916) 451-4357 or you may drop by at the center with this address: Sacramento Life Center, 2316 Bell Executive Ln., Sacramento, CA 95825.
