The Outreach Ministry
The Outreach Ministry serves people who are not members of our parish.
"Come, O blessed of my Father," Jesus said. "Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me."
We encourage hands-on participation by parishioners in projects that make a difference in our community. We remind parishioners we are agents of God's kingdom in our nation and in the world. We engage the parish in an ongoing dialog about how we can use all our resources including our attention, our voices, and our votes to advance God's Kingdom.
Our ministry partners include:
Habitat for Humanity (of the Peninsula and Silicon Valley)
La Roca
Santa Maria Urban Ministry
The Community Services Agency of Mountain View, Los Altos, and Los Altos Hills

Christ has no body now on earth but yours,
No feet but yours, no hands but yours.
Yours are the eyes through which the compassion of Christ is to look out on a hurting world.
Yours are the feet with which he is to go about doing good.
Yours are the hands with which he is to bless all now.
St. Teresa of Avila
