March 29 – April 1, 2024
Each year at Saint Michael and All Angels Episcopal Church, as part of our Easter celebrations, we have a lovely tradition of giving 100% of our undesignated offerings on Easter Day to outreach projects supported by our parish. This year’s theme is around 'Helping People Home'. The selected organizations are active in helping individuals achieve a high-quality life in safe, financially secure, beautiful homes. The agencies include:
OurCalling is raising funds to build an extraordinary tiny home community designed to provide long-term, comprehensive, and relational care to our homeless neighbors that need permanent support and are at risk of dying on the streets. Residents will have access to on-site wrap-around support services.
Gateway of Grace is a 501c3 helping refugees start over, many of them survivors of severe trauma, with donated furniture, pocket money, groceries, baby showers, job assistance, language lessons, and more. Most important, perhaps, Gateway trains volunteers and churches to adopt refugee families, the point where friendships form and integration begins.
