This November, Catholic Charities is uplifting the community by bringing health workers to San Luis Reyes Church as part of their annual Mission Week. Doctors, nurses, and health care professionals will provide free medical services to the public from Nov. 6–10. The event offers physical exams, prescriptions, dental checkups, blood pressure checks, vision tests, and health education — all at no cost.
Catholic Charities is a faith-based nonprofit that provides essential services for families and individuals in need. Their mission is to help those in poverty and to speak for the unheard. Nationwide, they have provided help for over 15 million people, working to end poverty, hunger, and unemployment.
