Frontline Ministry

Frontline Ministry,
to know our Catholic faith and live it on the frontlines

FM is a faith formation ministry for frontline workers such as law enforcement, military, firefighters, public safety tele-communicators, etc. led by a team of catholic public servants.

MEETINGS ARE ONCE A MONTH ON THE 3RD THURSDAY OF MONTH
7:30PM, ST AUGUSTINE PARISH LIBARY 
INFO/QUESTIONS: frontline@saintaugustinechurch.org

Frontline workers are the first on scene to many dangerous and demanding emergencies. Their heroic efforts are crucial to ensuring the public safety and health of our society. Despite this fulfilling work, it can be very strenuous and emotionally draining to those in the profession. These workers face many challenges in their professional lives that often bleed over into their personal lives.

Therefore, our goal is to provide a faith formation ministry that frontline workers can attend to grow in knowledge and understanding of our Catholic faith, ultimately guiding them to lean on God’s strength when we simply cannot overcome these difficult obstacles alone. We desire frontline workers to know their faith and live on mission for Christ in the frontlines. 
 

St. Augustine, is the host parish of the Frontline Ministry though this is a county-wide effort and meetings will rotate through several parishes. We’ve been blessed to have clergy involved that in one way or another have a connection to frontline workers.
