Safe Environment
Here at St. Luke’s, we follow the guidelines of the national charter for the Protection of Children and Young People approved by the US Bishops and the policies of the Worcester Diocese in screening those who work with children in our care and in helping victims of abuse find healing.
For questions, information or help please contact Judy Audette, Victim Assistance Coordinator for the Diocese of Worcester at 508-929-4361 (direct line and confidential voicemail is available).
If you are a brand new volunteer, please stop by the parish center to fill out CORI, Code of Conduct, and proof of the one time safety training. A certificate is given to all those who complete it. Please contact Gloria Josephs at gloriajosephs@hotmail.com for more details.
Every five years all volunteers must fill out another CORI form. -
Fr. Rick's Latest Horror in Haiti
Burying the Dead, and Raising Cain
Dear Friends:
For the last year and a half especially (not to mention the last 400 years), the Haitian people have been suffering deep political and social upheavals, often violent, caused by the decreased value of the local currency by half, and increased cost of living by a quarter.
Do the death math.
With whatever meager income you have (for the vast majority of the people here, this is still less than $800 per year), you can now afford 25% of what you used to be able to buy.
People cannot live like this.
In addition, the severe shortages of fuel, the scandal over the funds that subsidized fuel, and the frequent and violent blocking of the roads, bring dramatic challenges to every single person in Haiti without exception.
Imagine some of these challenges for a hospital, a religious mission, or a benevolent organization.
