GET INVOLVED!


Every of us can make a difference!


Each of us has a talent or ability to contribute, even if only for an hour every week or month.

How can I help?

There are so many ways!

1) Become involved with St. Joseph-Beatrice Parish sponsored pro-life activities by emailing Kate or Kim. Just press on the EMAIL icon up top.

2) Take part in discussions about abortion and euthanasia at work or where acquaintances gather. Respectfully discuss these issues with colleagues.

3) If you belong to a professional organization, advance pro-life positions.

4) Volunteer to counsel women in a local pregnancy aid center; ask the diocesan officers how you might assist the diocese's post-abortion ministry. The Beatrice Pregnancy Resource Center is located just a few blocks from St. Joseph Catholic Church. After spending an hour of adoration, donate your time to the Center. Beatrice women and families need your support and encouragement. Prayerfully consider this opportunity.

5) Volunteer for a respite care program that helps families caring for seriously ill members at home; help the local hospice program.

6) IMPORTANT: Contact your federal or state representatives on important pro-life legislation, especially when asked to do so by your diocese or parish—send that letter, make that phone call, sign that postcard. These things really do make a difference. Do not underestimate the significant value of such actions.

7) MOST IMPORTANT: Pray. Pray privately and take part in programs of prayer.

8) Stay well-informed on the issues.
