Embrace is a group of people from the church who reach out to new members of St. Gregory's to welcome them into the church. 

We make phone calls to new members to find out if they have any specific needs, as well as to see how they might get involved in the church. Some of the members will even ask if the new members would like to join them at Mass.

We offer to pray with or for the new members and their needs. We will provide new members with a booklet of organizations in the church that they can keep for reference. 

We plan to have socials where the new members get together with members of the Embrace team as a group so they have a chance to meet more people in the church. This could be a great time to find out what is available in the church, as well as to discuss any questions they may have. 

If you are new to the church, feel free to contact the Embrace team leaders with any questions you may have. 

Are you looking for a way to get involved? Do you have a knack for striking up a conversation with those you know know? Do you like to organize get-togethers? We would love to have you join our organization. You would be assigned to a team leader and would only need to a make phone calls one week a month. How many people you need to call will depend on how many people sign up in a given week. Phone calls would be made from your own home. Meetings will be held as needed. 

"He who receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me."-Matthew 10:40
