Many in the parish minister in small informal ways in the congregation. This
committee works to be sure that no one slips through the cracks. Let us know if
we can help you in your ministry or need our help.
Flower Delivery Ministry
This is a ministry of direct contact with people. We take altar flowers to
the sick and shut-ins. Occasionally, flowers are delivered to help celebrate a
special occasion like a new baby, baptism, or an anniversary.
Call Lucy Krieg at (314) 367-1858 if you want to help!
Casserole Delivery Ministry
This is a way the congregation can help provide assistance to families who
are in stressful situations including a new baby, a hospital stay, or illness in
the home. We provide fresh cooked meals and a friendly visit.
Call Sara Green at (314) 569-2894 to become part of this ministry.
Lay Eucharist Ministry
Lay Eucharistic Ministers are trained to take Communion to members of the
parish who are home-bound or temporarily unable to attend church.
If you, or someone you know, would like to receive Communion from a L. E. M.,
please call the church office or speak to Father Myers.
Parish Guild
Our Parish Guild is currently a group of 10 to 20 women (men are welcome) who
get together bi-monthly for worship, study fellowship, service to our parish and
outreach.
Our main outreach project is making sandwiches for Gateway Homeless Services.
We meet on the first Wednesday of the month at 10:30 AM for worship, 11:00 AM
study followed by lunch and sandwich making. On the third Wednesday of the month
lunch is followed by a business meeting and sometimes special projects.
On the last Wednesday of the month a Ladies' Day Out is featured.
If you have questions please call the parish office.
Adult Fellowship Group
This group gets together once a month for food, fellowship, and fun. Past
outings included bowling at Tropicana Lanes, a visit to the St. Louis Art
Museum, Christmas Caroling, and dinner at a U. City Loop restaurant.
Come join us! The more the merrier!
