Focus on Mental Illness--Impact on the Family: Many families are ill equipped to respond to the multiple challenges of a family member‘s diagnosis of mental illness. Behaviors can be misinterpreted, and finding effective resources and medical interventions may prove overwhelming. The strain on the family can be significant. The stigma that often accompanies this illness may cause families to be hesitant to share their need for support during this difficult time. How can our parish be of support to families with this need?

Diocesan Directory: The 2015 Diocese of Little Rock directory is now available. It is an invaluable resource to keep in your house or car to find Mass times for another parish or to call or e-mail a parish, priest, deacon or religious in the diocese. It costs only $10. Send your check or money order to Directory, Arkansas Catholic, P.O. Box 7417, Little Rock, AR 72217.

NFP classes are now required as part of marriage preparation for all couples in the Diocese, and already married couples are invited and welcome to register for a class series as well. NFP methods can help couples with infertility and women's health issues. Some of these moral methods have a higher success rate than InVitro Fertilization.
