2026 COMMUNION OFFERING

The 2026 Communion Offering will go towards a Tiny Home for Good. Its mission is to provide safe, affordable and dignified housing for local men and women coming out of the shelter system. Staff members and local agencies work to meet their needs, ensuring their long-term success and well-being in their homes.

Some of our recurring outreach missions beyond our local congregation are:

Sleep in Heavenly Peace

We are proud to be a drop-off site for donations toward Sleep in Heavenly Peace. Bed-in-a-bag is a much needed item comprised of brand new twin sheets, pillow case, and comforter. Donations of gently used quilts are also welcome.

Sts. Peter and John Episcopal Church

On the second Sunday of each month, we make sandwiches and deliver them to Sts. Peter and John Episcopal Church in Auburn, NY for their soup kitchen community outreach program. Then on the third Saturday of every month we have volunteers go to their Soup Kitchen to prepare and serve hot food to anyone who comes.
