Our Holy Father, Pope Francis, composed a prayer asking Mary, Health of the Sick, to intercede for us during this pandemic. Please join us in prayer.
Prayer to Mary, Health of the Sick
O Mary, you always shine on our path as a sign of salvation and of hope. We entrust ourselves to you, Health of the Sick, who at the cross took part in Jesus’ pain, keeping your faith firm. You, Mother of the Divine Physician, know what we need, and we are sure you will provide so that, as in Cana of Galilee, we may return to joy after this time of trial. Help us, Mother of Divine Love, to conform to the will of the Father and to do as we are told by Jesus, who has taken upon himself our sufferings and carried our sorrows to lead us, through the cross, to the joy of the resurrection. Amen.
Under your protection, we seek refuge, Holy Mother of God. Do not disdain the entreaties of we who are in trial, but deliver us from every danger, O glorious and blessed Virgin.

Step Out Stronger
Leave Quarantine Closer to Christ
Our days in isolation due to the pandemic will come to an end. When they do, will you emerge weaker or stronger in your faith?
Choose to use the month of May in order to come out stronger. In these 30 days, rather than dwelling on what we might be missing, the Archdiocese of Milwaukee invites you to focus on Jesus, giving one percent of each day in prayer (that's 15 minutes) and living out your prayer by doing one concrete action to grow in love for God and neighbor.

Catholic Charities Senior Hotline
Are you concerned about an older neighbor or loved one? Growing isolation and loss of community supports can lead to tragedy for the most vulnerable. To help seniors who are in need of extra care during the coronavirus emergency, Catholic Charities staff will call, visit, and follow-up to check in on how they are doing. We are able to assess needs and offer help. We can provide a care package of food and supplies or just be there to listen. Call our Senior Hotline, 414-771-6063, to share the name and number of your neighbor in need.
