Mass Held in Honor of 35th Anniversary

On Saturday, March 14, Bishop Earl Boyea along with Fr. David Speicher celebrated a small Mass at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Howell in honor of Livingston County Catholic Charities' 35th Anniversary. Bishop Boyea and those in attendance offered special prayers for those in our community who are ill and for the health concerns confronting our society.

All March Caregiver Activities are cancelled until further notice.

We will send out a schedule of all the great events scheduled for April once we can confirm they will be on.

2020 Basketball Tournament was a Fantastic Success!

Special Ministries held a dynamite basketball game vs. the Livingston County Sheriff Department at Parker Middle School on February 29 raising $1,139.00 to support programs and activities for adults with disAbilities. It was a lot of fun and our team won 58 to 24.

Shout out to all of our co-workers in the Special Ministries program for their tremendous efforts and hard work with this event! The Special Ministries dance team and Special Olympic cheerleaders had a great time. There were lots of smiles, high fives and of course baskets made.  

An especially amusing moment happened when the entire Sheriff's Department team exited the court on the tail of a box of donuts! Visit our Facebook page for MORE photos and videos!

All proceeds benefit Special Ministries, a program of Livingston County Catholic Charities.
