Don’t forget about your parish! Perhaps you have a talent for singing or for organizing or for sharing the faith with little children. There are always many opportunities for service in our own parish communities. If you don’t know where to start, ask your priest, the next time you see him after Mass, who you should contact He would be more than happy to help you make a connection.
