Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much. - Helen Keller

Mission: The St. Bernard SPRED (Special Religious Development) Ministry enables the parish to offer religious education to handicapped children, young adults and adults of St. Bernard's parish.

What we do: We prepare members of our parish to receive the sacraments by meeting two hours per week for 24 weeks. The diocese offers complete training.

How you can help: Share your faith with others by becoming involved with SPRED. Become part of a prayer community with your fellow catechists, and make a difference in another person's spiritual life.
