To show Christ's love to those in need. Reaching beyond our own church to address the basic human needs of the lost, the less fortunate, and the forgotten especially in our own neighborhood and our own hearts.
The congregation of St. Mary's lives out the biblical charge to love our neighbors as we bring open arms, doors, minds, and hearts offering opportunities to help people in crisis, men, women and children who are victims of domestic violence, as well as the homeless, the mentally ill, and others who are in need of acts of compassion.
THE PEOPLE OF ST. MARY'S bring in food staples and toiletries to distribute to our outreach community.
In conjunction with other churches in this area, St. Mary's serves meals to the less fortunate through the OPEN DOOR MEAL PROGRAM.

One day you will feel hopeless and need direction
One day you will get news and not know where to turn
One day you will feel lonely and need someone to listen . . .
