Outreach Ministries

Faith in Action

"For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me." — Matthew 25:35

At St. Anthony and OLPH, we believe that our Mass doesn't end when we walk out the church doors—that is where our mission begins. The Gospel calls us to see the face of Jesus in every person we meet, especially the poor, the struggling, and the lonely.

Our outreach ministries are the heartbeat of our parish charity. They are how we take care of our own and extend the mercy of God to the wider community. If you have a compassionate heart and willing hands, we invite you to join us in serving "the least of these."

St. Vincent de Paul Society

Inspired by the spirit of St. Vincent, we offer friendship and spiritual support to neighbors in crisis. Join us in providing direct assistance to those in our local area who are struggling to make ends meet.

Parish Food Pantry

No one in our community should have to worry about where their next meal is coming from. Help us organize, stock, and distribute food to families and individuals facing food insecurity.

Ministry to the Homebound

Ensure that our sick and elderly know they are still a vital part of our family. Volunteers bring the Holy Eucharist, companionship, and the prayers of the community directly to their bedside.

Respect Life Committee

We stand as witnesses to the dignity of every human life, from conception to natural death. Through prayer and advocacy, we work to build a culture of life that protects the most vulnerable.

Bereavement Support

As a parish family, we weep with those who weep. This ministry offers comfort, resources, and a shoulder to lean on for families navigating the difficult journey of grief.

Prison Ministry

Answering the call to visit the imprisoned, we bring the light of the Gospel and the message of God’s boundless mercy to those who are incarcerated.

Angel Tree & Holiday Giving

Every Advent, we share the joy of Christmas with local children in need. Help us coordinate the collection and distribution of gifts, ensuring the love of Christ is felt in every home.
