When life gets hard, knowing there is support can be of great comfort. Extending the Church’s care and love to the congregation is vital. God manifests his presence through others. Colossians 3:12 says, “So, as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.”
Becoming “God’s heart and hands” and implementing these attributes of Him with those who are in need, is the very essence of servinglife ministry.

Distribution
Seasonally we will offer opportunities to get food, clothes or other small items that families may need. We also team up with the C.R.O.S.S. Center in Foley through money and item donations each year.
Servinglife can help you if you have surgery or are injured requiring a hospital stay or if you experience a serious illness. We will also provide meals to our parishioners who are grieving the loss of an immediate family member. We will do our best to be available to help in whatever way we can.
There are many opportunities for you to get involved with this ministry. Depending on your availability and areas of passion. We welcome your help as we walk along side people during very difficult times in their lives.
