St. Hildegarde Medical Center
.
Through the help of the Archdiocese of Cologne, Germany, St. Jude's administers a medical center at the service of the poorest people of the parish. It offers services in general medicine, dentistry, gynecology, and programs of education and nutrition. Volunteer health professionals visit the facility and offer their services at scheduled times.
The director of the center is Sister Maria Filomena of the Italian order of the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Side. Father Bob Thomas recently presented Sister Maria Filomena with a portion of the funds raised by Holy Eucharist for some of her special projects.
