One ride. One connection. One inspiration to serve.

When Judy needed a ride to an outpatient procedure, senior companion Kathie was there every step of the way, from a reassuring phone call the night before to safely escorting her home afterward.

Kathie’s kindness and dedication made such an impact that Judy decided to become a senior companion herself. Today, she is providing rides, companionship, and support to older adults in our community.

We are grateful for volunteers like Kathie, whose compassion not only changes lives but inspires others to serve.

As we are preparing for the Christmas season, we invite you to help make Christmas brighter for local families facing financial hardship.

For many parents, rising housing costs, utility bills, food expenses, and other necessities make it difficult to provide gifts for their children. Through our Christmas Store, families can experience not only the joy of Christmas, but also the hope and dignity that comes from knowing their community cares

When needed, pursue professional help without hesitation.

Faith and professional care are not rivals. Therapy and counseling, can be instruments of God’s healing. Seeking competent help is an act of humility and hope, not a failure of faith. At Catholic Charities Indianapolis therapists are available to offer counseling for those who wish to incorporate their values and spirituality into the therapy process. This is not about imposing beliefs. Rather, counselors gently assess how important a person’s faith is to them and, when desired, thoughtfully incorporate their spiritual practices and address spiritual struggles within evidence-based care. This kind of integrated care reflects ongoing clinical and research work in the field that centers on the importance of faith and psychology, with particular attention to holistic approaches that honor the whole person — body, mind, and soul. Counselors are available in person and via telehealth.

Today is Mental Health Sunday. We recognize the importance of mental health and the need to support one another with compassion, understanding, and hope.

Mental health challenges can affect anyone, regardless of age, background, or circumstance. As a community rooted in faith and service, we are called to care for the whole person, offering encouragement, connection, and support to those who may be struggling. Seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Together, we can help reduce stigma, foster belonging, and remind our neighbors that they are never alone.

As we observe Mental Health Sunday, let us pray for those facing mental health challenges, for their families and caregivers, and for all who work to bring healing and hope. Find out more about counseling services at helpcreathope.org
