Saint Jude Parish

ADOPT A RETIRED PRIEST MINISTRY

This ministry of Saint Jude Parish was established several years ago, to reach out in a special way to the retired priests in the Diocese of Bridgeport.

Through this ministry you will gain a realization of what priests have contributed to the Diocese of Bridgeport and of what happens to a priest after he retires. Your children can join in by the making of cards.

The goal of each family would be to:

  • Send a Christmas, Easter, and Anniversary card, or at other times throughout the year.
  • Say a daily prayer at dinner time.
  • Pray each week as an intention at Mass.
  • Send a family picture (If you choose).

    These efforts on behalf of a retired priest will permit him to have some contact with families and let him know that there are people in the diocese thinking and praying for him.

    Questions? Please call the parish office at 261-6404.

  • He said to them, "Go into the
    whole world and proclaim
    the gospel to every creature."

    Mark 16:15
