Welcome to our mental health support group for Our Lady of Hope Parish in Everett! Our purpose is to provide a listening community for each other and remind us all of God’s limitless love despite our crosses. Our recent experience includes the Sanctuary For Catholics course and also experience with groups supported by NAMI.org. We will draw on these fantastic resources to create a place where people feel heard, loved, and prayed for. Anyone with lived experience is welcome at this time. If the opportunity arises, we may develop branches covering more specific mental health topics (family, veterans, young adults, etc.). For more information, contact the parish office at 425-349-7014.
