Volunteer opportunities
Volunteers are always welcome!
We would love to partner with you to serve the people in and surrounding our parish. We have a bi-monthly food distribution with the assistance of our local food bank that we are always seeking help with. Please call our church office for more details.
Each spring, we do a "food bank walk" to show solidarity with those who have no transportation to get to and from local markets. We meet at a local grocery store, bringing either food items from home or from the store, and "march" two miles to the Yuma Community Food Bank. This is a fulfilling, hands-on activity that really highlights how heavy a plastic bag of food gets after about a mile. We walk considering how others deal with breaking bags, spoiling food (110! here in the summer), and the boiling heat and driving rain (when it does rain). Please call our church office for more details.

Outreach
Dedicated to helping others in need.
Prayers & Squares
An interfaith outreach ministry that combines the gift of prayer with the gift of a hand-tied quilt. Unlike many other groups that make quilts for charitable causes, the purpose of Prayers and Squares is not to make and distribute quilts, but to promote prayer through the use of quilts. After the quilt is made by the group members it is blessed during Sunday worship. The congregation is invited to tie the knots in the quilts as they add their prayers for the recipients.
Our motto is: "It's not about the quilt, it's ALL about the PRAYERS."
Through Prayers and Squares, many quilts have been distributed, each a special gift of love. They have been made for sick babies, for cancer and AIDS patients, for adults and children facing surgery or personal crisis, for many reasons, but each for someone in special need of prayer.
If you would like to request a quilt for someone in need, all you need to do is ask the recipient if they are willing to receive prayer. For more information, or to offer your help with the ministry please contact:
