Prostate Cancer Support Ministry
Who We Are & What We Do
We are a group of men who get together to provide spiritual support and comfort to our members who have experienced a prostate cancer diagnosis. We meet monthly to discuss issues and pray for healing regarding any aspect or difficulty that our members may be experiencing related to their prostate cancer journey. We are strictly a faith-based support group and therefore we do not provide any medical advice for the treatment of prostate cancer.
Why We Exist
As a Support Group, we exist to provide a faith based, safe environment for men to share and ask questions about their experience and difficulties related to their prostate cancer. Our group is founded on the principles of the Catholic faith and is dedicated to protecting the confidentiality of our membership and any sharing that may occur during our meetings.
Who We Serve
We primarily serve the men of the Catholic Church of St Ann. However, men from other parishes/churches are welcome to join our support group.
Volunteer Opportunities
Our volunteer facilitators have personal knowledge of the medical and confidential topics which are discussed and have a strong prayer and faith life.
Special Requirements
To be part of the St. Ann Prostate Cancer Support Group, you need to be a male who has been diagnosed with prostate cancer. Because we work with vulnerable individuals, our volunteer facilitators must complete a safe environment VIRTUS training and a background check to ensure everyone’s safety and well-being.
