Two of our own, Jeanne and Tom Barta, visited St. Patrick’s in September to share about the work of Mater Filius and to invite additional support from parishioners. They also shared this testimonial from one of the Mater Filius mothers:
“I’ve accomplished so much since I’ve been at Mater Filius. I’ve been here for almost 10 months and in that time, I earned my high school diploma with a 3.8 GPA, obtained my CNA certification, paid off all my outstanding debt, opened a savings account, and quit smoking.
My son turned one in this home, learned to walk, talk, make friends, and was able to have a safe roof over his head. When I had my daughter Miley and came home from the hospital, the staff was welcoming and helpful. I’m now able to pay for my own apartment and purchase a used car for transportation to work. My family and I cannot thank Mater Filius enough for the ongoing support.”
If you’d like to have them speak at your parish, please contact us!
