SAM
"Social Action Ministry"
Mission
Statement:
The joy of giving in community and the desire to be
of service reflects the teaching of Jesus to “Love our neighbors as
ourselves.” Our mission is to put faith into action, using our gifts to
provide service, support and care to those in our parish community, our
neighborhood and wherever we see need throughout the world.

--Back-to-School-Wish-List DRIVE!!
Welcome to "St. Alban's annual
Back-to-School Drive" for the 1736 Crisis Center! You have all been
so very generous in past years to the children of these families in
crisis, and their need is probably even greater in these harsh economic
times. Whatever you feel you can give will be most welcome.
Below is their "wish list" for school supplies.
Please bring your donations to the parish reception area in bags clearly
marked "`1736 Crisis Center". Members of the Social Action
Ministries (SAM) Committee thank you in advance for your generosity!
