Outreach

Serving others beyond our own parish community is a hallmark of discipleship, and our Outreach Committee gathers occasionally to discuss the ways in which we serve the wider community with our own unique gifts. From the Food Pantry to our Christmas distribution, this is the team that collaborates to ensure we are living into our baptismal promise to “seek and serve Christ in all people.”

Pastoral Care

Pastoral Care seeks to provide food, comfort, and support to members of the congregation. Our hope is to expand the work of the Nurturing Committee from gifts of food to include communicating with those who are ill, regularly contacting and supporting parishioners experiencing life changes, funerals, and a card ministry.

Faith Formation

What do we mean by Faith Formation? It is the process by which we grow as Christians. It involves a number of practices—prayer and worship, fellowship, service, and religious education. All these aspects of church life form us in our journey of becoming faithful followers of Jesus. The Faith Formation Team exists to ensure the church provides educational opportunities and programs that help us to grow in our faith.
