OUr Community and the world

Service to others and advancing the work of the Episcopal Church are traditions for our parish, whether it’s support for community organizations or assisting wider Christian ministries that educate, help, and heal.

Suubi CHRISTIAN School - bUKEKA, Uganda

We are longtime supporters of the Suubi School in Bukeka, Uganda – a Christian school whose founders educate the poorest students in the region. Through sales of jewelry and baskets made by the women of Bukeka, our parish raises funds for the purchase of books and learning materials for the school.  In 2019, years of book collection and planning by the parish resulted in launch of a 13,000-book library that now serves students and teachers throughout the district. Since then, the parish has continued to support the school’s evolving needs.

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.
