The Samaritans ministry provides assistance in a variety of ways to those in our parish and extended community who are in need, as well as to provide opportunities for parishioners of all ages to recognize and respond to those needs.
Our annual events include a springtime Baby Shower for mothers/caregivers and babies in need, a Back-to-School Supplies collection for students served by local agencies, a Turkey and Thanksgiving Food Drive in November and a Christmas Giving Tree collection.
On-Going Programs: Cooking and serving hot lunches at the Faith Kitchen several Fridays each month and hot dinners at Homeless Solutions twice a month; also supporting Randolph’s Meals-On-Wheels program with delivery volunteers; and collecting non-perishable items for the food pantries at Hope House and Homeless Solutions.
Volunteers can give as little or as much time as they wish by helping with one of the collection drives or with ongoing activities throughout the year. We invite you to join us in this very worthwhile Ministry!
“In working with the Samaritans, I feel that I receive more than I give. It is always inspiring because not only are you helping others, but you gain so much by working with people who truly match their faith with good works.” - Kim
