We were pleased to see our very own Golden Halos Ministy featured on the cover of Hamilton Square Neighbors this March 2022!The Golden Halo Outreach ministry was formed at St. Gregory the Great by Fr. McClane and Mary Theresa Weil, along with her husband Larry’s Golden Retriever, Kimiko, in March 2015. The group of about 12 dogs and their owners regularly bring comfort to the sick and grieving and make stops at hospitals and local nursing homes.
Through this outreach program, dogs and their owners bring emotional healing to children and adults who are grieving or are in need of comfort through a visit.
The Golden Halo Outreach are present after the 5pm Saturday Mass every second Saturday of the month. The children and their parents love petting the dogs, it gives them great joy. The Golden Halo Outreach also comes to the Anointing of the Sick and Healing Masses.
If you would like more information about this outreach, please contact parishioner and Golden Retriever owner Mary Theresa Weil at 609-516-6907 or [email protected].
