Changes to offertory envelopes | |
Beginning in January 2025, our envelopes will be mailed bi-Monthly (every 2 months) instead of Monthly. This will be a significant cost savings in postage. With this change, we are also adding the option of monthly offertory envelopes (one per month as opposed to one per week). Again, this will be a cost savings as well as aligning better with the way many of our parishioners give & saving a few trees in the process.
Go to cureofars.com/envelopes to update your envelope preferences or contact Sandy Drake at 913.521.9363 or giving@cureofars.com with questions.

Walking with Moms in Need | |
Why WWMIN?
To ensure that any woman who finds herself unexpectedly pregnant or parenting in difficult circumstances can turn to her local Catholic Church, eg: Curé of Ars parish, for help or when she doesn’t know where else to turn.
What is WWMIN?
It is a group of women in Curé of Ars parish wanting to help pregnant and parenting moms in need. Depending on the situation, our group of women volunteers can help with prayer, authentic friendship and material support. We may also be a connection to local resources providing additional trained and/or professional assistance.

This ministry is a great service to those in need and a great opportunity for Curé parishioners to come together as a community. Cure of Ars serves approximately 350+ people every third Monday of each month. We need your help.
Volunteers leave the church at 7:30 am on the third Monday of each month to serve lunch to the hungry in Kansas City, Kansas. Volunteers are also needed to provide food items such as taco meat, shredded cheese, baked goods, and fresh fruit.
