  • FISH (For I Shall Help) Barrington FISH is a network of local volunteers who answer the transportation needs of the community when family, friends or public transportation are not available.  Most clients are elderly residents, who are grateful to have a ride to a doctor or therapy.  There are three types of volunteers:  (1) the driver volunteer (a pre-assigned day), (2) the telephone volunteer (once a month – needs access to phone or cell), and (3) the substitute driver (called when needed).  Volunteers from Saint Anne are always needed. Contact:  Kathy Giamalva, (847) 381-6840, vkgiam@sbcgobal.net
  • Funeral Luncheon Ministry This ministry helps those who have experienced the loss of a loved one.  Volunteers work together to prepare a light luncheon at the parish on the day of the funeral Mass.  Volunteers help with setup, serving and/or preparing salads/desserts.  When and how often you help depends on your schedule.Contact: Susan Valentino, (847) 304-8626, susanvalentino@comcast.net or Cindy Byrne, (847) 304-1119, cb1429@aol.com
