The Altar Guild
Members of the Altar Guild have special roles to serve in our historic church and traditional liturgy. They prepare us for worship and care for vestments, silver, linens and other furnishings. Commitment is generally one Sunday per month, about 45 minutes before the service and 20 minutes after. In addition, members participate in parish clean-up days in the spring and fall. We welcome both men and women to the altar guild and train all new members. If you are interested in serving on the Altar Guild, please contact Raja Reed .
Urban Necessities Project
The Urban Necessities Project, a ministry of St. Mary's, St. Augustine's, and Grace and Holy Trinity Cathedral, is a collaborative effort to serve the City Center community in Kansas City. Members of The Project seek to fulfill a need within the community to provide basic non-food items for individuals and families such as toiletries and household necessities. The Project received an initial grant from the Deanery to begin our mission. In order to provide a sustainable service, we hope to involve all members of our parish communities as we come together on behalf of the individuals in our city who need our help. There is a monthly donation drive; you can find more specifics in our weekly newsletter (available under the News header of our website), and St. Mary's volunteers distribute the items once-per-month in conjunction with Downtown Outreach. Contact Jen Dean for more information.
