OUr Community and beyond

Service to others has long been part of the life of our parish. We support local organizations and wider ministries of the Episcopal Church and Christian programs that educate, heal, and care for those in need.

Suubi CHRISTIAN School - bUKEKA, Uganda

We are longtime supporters of the Suubi School in Bukeka, Uganda, a Christian school serving some of the region’s poorest students. Through sales of jewelry and baskets made by the women of Bukeka, our parish has raised funds for books and other learning materials. In 2019, years of parish book collection and planning culminated in the opening of a 13,000-volume library that now serves students and teachers throughout the district. Since then, we have continued to support the school as its needs have evolved and changed.

UNITED THANK OFFERING (UTO)

The United Thank Offering funds innovative ministries and programs within the Episcopal Church and the worldwide Anglican Communion, and since its founding in 1889, the organization has made grants of more than $142M to various church initiatives. In recent years, UTO funded creation of a new Anglican Pilgrim Centre at Santiago de Compostela in Spain, provided support for migration and asylum ministries, and made grants for the Diocese of Jerusalem.

diocese, church and world

Our parish supports the work of the Diocese of Los Angeles and the Anglican Communion through both giving and service. Parishioners serve in diocesan leadership roles, support wider Anglican and Christian humanitarian ministries, and contribute to initiatives of the Bishop of Los Angeles that strengthen mission congregations and centers and support the formation of seminarians. In these and other ways, our life of service extends beyond the parish into the wider Church and world.
