The St. Patrick Haiti Ministry reaches out to a specific organization called Outreach to Haiti which is under the charitable umbrella of the Catholic Diocese of Norwich, CT and focuses mainly on education and healthcare in the Christ Roi neighborhood of Port-au-Prince.
The Haiti Ministry holds an annual fundraiser in February. This coming year will be on Saturday, February 9, 2019. Please mark your calendar for this exciting event which many parishioners (but not exclusively) organize and attend. This is a big undertaking and help is always needed.
There is an annual parish collection at which time we speak at all the Masses. We use this opportunity to update and inform the parish of what is new, what the needs are, and what experiences we have had in Haiti. We encourage as many parishioners as possible to visit Haiti on an "Immersion Experience." Watch the weekly parish bulletin for information on dates.
