Responding to Jesus’s mandate in Matthew 25 to feed, clothe and care for those in need, the Outreach Ministry of Christ Episcopal Church assists those who serve the most vulnerable in our community, our nation and the world. We do this through an annual grant-making program, by identifying ways parishioners can provide hands-on service and encouraging participation. Our current outreach partners include:
In our community and the U.S.
Outside the U.S.
- Amistad Mission in Bolivia
- Church of the Good Shepherd Mission in Cuba
- Episcopal Relief and Development
Outreach Grants
Christ Church makes grants to nonprofit programs that provide basic needs to the most vulnerable of our neighbors. In addition to small grants (typically $10,000 or less) for such work, the Outreach Ministry provides funds to organizations with local, national or international Episcopal affiliation, especially those founded by Christ Episcopal Church or impacted by significant parishioner participation. Recipients are selected in an annual process by a committee of parishioners, under the guidance of the senior associate rector. The application process is closed for 2018, and will re-open in November for 2019 grants.
