We have a great group of men and women who bring Holy Communion to patients at Memorial Hospital.  They visit every day except Saturday.  There is a list kept in the Hospital Chaplain’s office that should contain the names of all patients who are from St. Thomas the Apostle Parish.   However, we have come across times when there is someone from St. Thomas Parish whose name is not listed.
When you or a family member is in Memorial Hospital, it is very important that you make sure on the admission forms that you let them know that you are Catholic and that you are from St. Thomas the Apostle Parish.  Sometimes when admissions go through the Emergency Room, the patient’s religious affiliation is not listed.  If you want to receive visits and/or the Eucharist while you are at Memorial Hospital, be sure the Admissions Office has your religious affiliation and you are listed under St. Thomas the Apostle Parish.
We certainly do not want to overlook anyone.  Please help us make sure everyone who wants to be visited is listed under St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic Church.
