Service

The Gospel of Mark tells us that Jesus “called to him those he wanted, that they might be with him, and that he might send them out” (cf. Mark 3:13-14). ​

Jesus wants a personal relationship with each of us. All the spiritual writers of the Church tell us that he wants this relationship more than anything else. His Sacred Heart desires union with each of our hearts.

And yet, the Bible tells us that we cannot love God, whom we do not see, unless we love our neighbor, whom we do see (1 John 4:20). 
Jesus himself said that what we do to others, we do to him (Matthew 25:31-46). 

And our patron, Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati, said that “Jesus comes to me every morning in Communion, and I return the visit by going to serve the poor.”

Because serving others is non-negotiable to being a disciple of Jesus, Frassati Catholic Church has multiple ways to love Christ in and through serving others.

We will provide opportunities throughout the year, during Family Discipleship, to serve others. If you feel inspired to do more, we invite you to contact Carol Schembari, Director of Friends of Frassati, to discuss many other service opportunities. Email Carol at  cschembari@charlestondiocese.org
