Precious Elder Ministry

Mission Statement
St. Hugh Precious Elder Ministry seeks to bring hope and healing to the elderly—and our neighbors in the Mountain Communities (and beyond)—with dignity and respect; we will offer compassionate care and encourage a sense of belonging and connection to God and the People of God through Intercessory Prayer, Holy Eucharist, Anointing and Reconciliation. |

Patricia Horkey, our Nominee for Ordination to the Priesthood in the Episcopal Church, is helping me and our parish develop a ministry to elders, especially those living with Alzheimer's Disease or dementia. Come back often as we construct these pages for your inspiration, refreshment, and information. ~daniel rondeau, vicar
