Interfaith Outreach Home (IOH), a ministry of our parish, empowers homeless, working families to achieve self-sufficiency. Founded in the 1980s by our parish along with several other churches and synagogues, IOH houses families and gives them the necessary tools to grow savings, give their children stability, and ultimately purchase their own homes. Each of these families has a full-time working adult who desires to achieve what most of us already have – a stable home life for their family. The most valuable gift you can give to the families of IOH this Christmas is the opportunity to break the cycle of poverty and achieve stability. You can do so with our IOH Giving Tree by contributing to the costs of housing and serving these families. By ensuring the sustainability of IOH, you give the most precious gifts of all to families in crisis: Hope, Haven & Healing.
The IOH Giving Tree will be displayed in the church vestibule through Christmas. Parishioners are encouraged to stop by to choose an ornament representing their intended donation and donate online.
