All Saints Anglican Church, Bakersfield, California

Outreach Committee

Over the years the Outreach Committee has helped those abroad and at home.  It has sent aid to missionaries, supported with prayers and money, many from All Saints like Deacon Dottie Gleason who is currently serving in Honduras.  Some go on short-term missions such as Jan and Gary Lockhart to Guatemala and, of course, our youth to Arizona and Mexico.  Two members of our congregation recently have attended seminary.  Christina Vance is currently in seminary in Pennsylvania and Michelle Terwilliger was recently ordained as a deacon and gave a sermon here at All Saints. Support from Outreach has also stayed in the Bakersfield community, helping Paul and the Brown Bag ministry which gives food and clothing to the homeless, and Carol Galagan’s whose Hearts and Hands ministry group makes blankets for the sick and shut-ins.  Others volunteer with prison ministry, Teen Challenge, Habitat for Humanity, Pregnancy Center, Rescue Mission and Love I.N.C. (in the Name of Christ). 
           
There are many more that past and present members that are and were involved in All Saints Outreach Committee.  To them outreach is not just a committee but a large part of the soul of All Saints.    You are invited to join our committee which meets on the second Tuesday of each month.  Just stop and think about all those lives who have been touched because an up and coming church decided to draw a name out of a can.

For more information regarding the Outreach Committee please contact Sarah Perelli-Minetti or the church office at (661) 832-8582.

We are currently supporting the Bakersfield Crisis Pregnancy Center through a donating coins in baby bottles and returning them to All Saints Church.
