They provide a home-away-from-home and offer support to families seeking medical care for their children since 1980.
Located near Mayo Clinic and steps away from Saint Marys Hospital, the House keeps families close to the support and medical care they need. Last year alone, they helped families save $736 million in lodging and meal expenses.
There are green boxes in the back of the church for you to drop them off.

The Renewal Project is not a checklist or a program—it’s a personal invitation for you to engage with your faith on your time and on your terms. Rooted in prayer and community, this diocesan-wide effort encourages each of us to take a simple step deeper in our relationship with Jesus Christ. You will find a variety of invitations to help you reflect, grow, and respond to the Lord in your daily life—whether as parents, couples, singles, or students. It's about opening your heart to His presence and letting Him renew you from the inside out. To learn more and begin your journey, visit diolc.org/renewal. Come and see what the Lord desires for you.
You are most welcome to join for FREE as an opportunity to deepen your relationship with Christ and the Blessed Virgin as you understand the beauty and significance of the rosary.
This will be a 10-minute daily podcast to hear about the basics, what it means to have a relationship with Jesus and Mary, the meaning of the prayers, understand better the different mysteries and how to meditate on the life of Christ to encounter Him.
