The St. Rose de Lima Catholic Church in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi has always been an invaluable resource of assistance to their community. In the aftermath of Katrina, the parishoners and ministry of St. Rose de Lima devoted long hours to ensure their neighbors had food, clothing and necessary supplies. Now, St. Rose de Lima Church has taken the 'next step' - helping families as they transition away from the shelter and into their new homes.
