Migrant Worker Ministry

The farmers in Colorado have relied on migrant farm workers for the last 100 years. For many years migrants would live in migrant camps during growing/harvesting season, but due to the housing at the camps not meeting minimum safety requirements, many of the migrants now live in separate housing, such as Catholic Charities Plaza del Sol and Plaza del Milagro in Greeley. They also need suitable clothing to work in the elements and other supplies. Two deacons began a ministry of collecting clothing and toiletries at their parishes to support the workers. The deacons take the items collected to the workers. They also lead Communion Services and pray with the workers.
