The St. Matthew the Evangelist Parish Nurse program provides support through our newly initiated Blood Pressure Clinics that will be held in conjunction with Community Sundays starting in 2026 and through the newly established Bereavement Support Program beginning January 8, 2026.
Parish Nurses will also be available in person during office hours to provide support with a focus on intentional care of the spirit as part of the process of promoting wholistic health and preventing or minimizing illness (ANA, HMA 2017).
This may include, but is not limited to, intentional prayer, understanding lab or diagnostic test results, asking health related questions, or seeking guidance on where to obtain medical or social care through clinics or agencies.
Parish Nurses may also be reached at [email protected]. To request a home visit, please contact via the listed email or through the Parish Office at 978-663-8816. Please see the bulletin for office hour times held in Room 7 of the Parish Office Building. To learn more about the Bereavement Support Program and how to register, please contact[email protected].
