Holy Communion to Sick and Homebound The homebound and retirement home Catholics in our area are still very much apart of our community through prayer and in faith. We have many volunteers that take Holy Communion on Sundays to the homebound and retirement residents. If you or a family member would like to receive Communion at home, please call the Parish Office at (302) 652-6800.
Baptism Preparation for baptism, scheduling of baptism, and family follow ups also fall under Pastoral Ministry at SMM. Our baptisms are on the first and the third Sundays of each month after the 11:00 a.m. Mass. If looking to schedule a baptism please call the Parish Office at (302) 652-6800.

Jesus commands us to care for the sick, cloth the naked, feed the hungry, give shelter to the homeless, visit the prisoner, tend to the needs of the widow and orphan. The St. Vincent dePaul Society is a group of dedication parishioners who tend to all these needs in the name of our parish community, supported through the generosity of parishioners via the poor boxes & the money collected from the children’s envelopes. They meet every other Tuesday night in the church hall (see bulletin for details.)
