Helping Hands
"Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of my brothers, you did it to me." Matthew 25:40
With this simple expression of generosity, our Lord is calling us to always treat those in need as if they were Jesus himself. Helping Hands of Rosenberg/Richmond gives Calvary the opportunity to fulfill a portion of that call by helping to provide temporary assistance to needy individuals or families in west Fort Bend County. Together, with other churches in this area, we pledge to have at least two food and clothing drives a year, while also providing a regular monetary contribution in support of the charity.
However, giving to this charity is not limited to the members of the Calvary parish. For over ten years, the children of Calvary Episcopal School have held a food and clothing drive. Originally, this expression of service and goodwill was organized and taught to the school's student council as part of a scout's Eagle Project from Calvary's own Boy Scout Troop 1000.
Additionally, many members of the Calvary family regularly volunteer in the Food Pantry, Clothes Closet, and in the charity's office. Of course, more volunteers are always needed and welcome to help!
