A new ministry has been formed at St. Thomas the Apostle. For now, we’re calling ourselves “St. Thomas Angels”. In response to discussions held during the Vestry’s strategic planning session in December in which it became apparent that there was a need to provide assistance to our own members. A meeting was held earlier this year among those who had expressed interest in being a part of such a ministry. We are picking up the gauntlet for providing food to members from the Daughters of the King group at St. Thomas and adding some other services to those who have needs.
Basically, the “Angels” can provide a meal or meals to members with health issues making preparation difficult and to supplement other resources that might be available, such as Meals on Wheels, for example. We can also provide transportation to and from medical appointments, assistance with shopping, and so on.
If this sounds like a program that interests you, we can always use more volunteers.
A form is available in this newsletter, or you can pick one up from the narthex table, complete it, and turn it in to the office, put it in the collection plate, or scan it in an email to vicki@thedoubter.org.
