Es nuestro agrado poder ofrecer servicios de consejería de salud mental a los feligreses, tanto en las instalaciones de St. John the Baptist como fuera de ellas. A través de asesoría individual, matrimonial o familiar, podemos proveerle con las herramientas necesarias para superar los desafíos de la vida diaria, a través de la fe católica. A continuación, encontrara la información sobre los servicios de asesoramiento católico disponibles para miembros de la Iglesia. Por favor comuníquese con nosotros; nuestro equipo de profesionales católicos está disponible para ayudarle.

– Dr. Chris Stravitsch, President

A great part of Jesus’s ministry deals with healing: physical, spiritual and social healing. All of these are still available in the Church through its various ministries and rituals. However, in keeping with the extreme complexity of our lives today more is needed to bring about healing, such as what is provided by professional counselors. Faith-based professional counseling services are sometimes difficult to gain access to, especially for a small town like Alvin.

Here is the good news. Beginning in July, our friends from Rejoice Counseling Apostolate will help us with this particular need. One of their Parish Counselors will be available at our Church office one day per week. I hope and pray that we can take advantage of this new ministry for the sake of our well being.

– Fr. John Taosan, Pastor
