Mental Health Resources
The Catholic Church remains a steadfast ally in the mission of promoting dignity, compassion and practical help for all God’s children struggling with mental health challenges. Please pray for those fighting mental health battles and for their loved ones.
If you or a loved one is struggling, please consult this list of local and national resources. If you would like to talk to someone at St. Stephen the Martyr, please contact Colleen Eusterwiemann, Pastoral Care Coordinator, at 402-861-4538 or c.eusterwiemannor@stephen.org
St. Louis Martin & St. Dymphna, patron saints of those struggling with mental health, pray for us!
