The ministries under Social Outreach help the parish meet the needs of the poor and oppressed in our local community and worldwide.  This reflects on the Gospel’s social teaching and encourages parishioners to build a culture of life through the activities of their families, formation and worship, outreach to those in crisis and good citizenship.

We offer the following Social Ministries

  • Cooperative Ministry Food Collection – 2nd Sunday of every month
  • Angel Tree
  • Haiti Missions (Partnered with St. Mary’s of the Presentation, Suffolk)
  • Knights of Columbus KOVAR
  • Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter Food Baskets
