Elderly Assistance
Holy Souls parish has established a volunteer ministry to assist elderly and homebound parishioners. Volunteers are needed to help with grocery shopping, handy-man chores (you do not have to be a professional), take parishioners to the doctor and to church and assist with yard work.

 Jenny Cia's Ministry
This ministry, begun more than 30 years ago by Mrs. Jenny Cia, provides food, clothing, toys and gifts for people in need. "Miss Jenny" retired from the ministry in 1995 but her spirit lives on through the many volunteers who support this ministry.

Ministry of Praise
Members offer daily prayers for the specific need of the parish noted quaterly in The Parishioner newsletter. Each participant is provided a cross, a daily prayer book and a certificate. For more information, contact Dodie Longinotti at (501) 666-1623.

Outreach Ministry 

    Helping Hand: Helping Hand is a nonprofit, ecumenical ministry financed by private donations and providing emergency service to persons in crisis. This is basically a food and clothing center offering service once per month. In addition, medical prescription assistance and household items for families are also provide. Our parish has a collection container in a room off of  the vestibule of the church for donations of items that we contribute directly to Helping Hand.
    Social Concerns Commission: The purpose of this commission is to inform and involve the parish community in social concerns and charitable acts toward one another and toward the larger community of city, state, nation and world and to transform into action the Church's concern about social justice and charity towards all. Every Spring the Social Concerns Commission interviews local organizations to determine the distribution of funds in support of local outreach ministries.

Stephen Ministry
Stephen Ministers are fellow-parishioner who have been thoroughly trained to provide support to those who are passing through a particularly difficult time in their lives and to maintain total confidentiality. Typical issues addressed are grief over the death of a loved one, stress of caring for an ill or aging family member, feelings of isolation or loneliness, financial or employment issues, and difficulty dealing with chronic illness.
