Our Focus on Hunger Ministry
…acts to help those in our community who are struggling with food insecurity, in response to Jesus’s call to feed the poor and hungry. Members of this ministry plan and execute many events throughout the year, such as Stock the Food Pantry, Thanksgiving Meal Boxes, food packing events, and campaigns to raise awareness and wider support for meeting the needs of our hungry neighbors, both locally and internationally.
Commitment: Members meet regularly to plan events, create communications to keep parishioners informed, and seek volunteers to help out during events. You can be as involved as you would like to be.
