“As For Me and My House” Anti-Pornography Program

This Archdiocesan initiative began with Awareness Sunday, a DVD presentation and Theology of the Body study groups. We continue to fight pornography through prayer and education with a focus on chastity and modesty. The "My House" program continues to provide new information and materials.

College Students’ Care Packages 

Our college students receive four care packages a year. Generous parishioners provide items such as holy cards, bookmarks, faith-based information booklets, and snacks. This is an evangelization and prayer project for our young men and women.

Covenant Eyes

Covenant Eyes is an internet service that holds internet users accountable on the internet against pornography.
