Looking for a meaningful way to serve? We're seeking 10 or more volunteers to join our Alpha Outreach Team or Cooking Team.

The Cooking Team helps by preparing and providing a warm meal for approximately 30 participants. Volunteers sign up to cook just 1–2 times per semester and deliver the meal to St. Ann by 9:30 AM on their scheduled day.
Whether you enjoy building relationships, sharing hospitality, or serving behind the scenes, there's a place for you. Join us in helping create a welcoming community where everyone belongs. If interested, please email Brittany Barraza, at BBarraza@stannparish.org.
