Outreach Ministries extend the mission of Our Savior
to the larger community and beyond
Human

on reaching out to others in our local community and the world
to help with whatever needs they might have. For Information

Prison
Ministries
Prison ministries seek to bring God's love to those
who are incarcerated. Both require training to participate. Click

and Kairos.
Medical
Missions; Parish Wellness
Medical Outreach is a focus of our parish largely because many parishioners have medical backgrounds. Several years ago nursing services were offered to the parishioners with little immediate need. Regular services such as quarterly Blood Bank Drives and fall flu shots are offered as well as medical education, blood pressure checks and support on an as needed basis.
The Dearing Clinic
Several parishioners have been working with a rural free community health clinic in collaboration with the Dearing Baptist Church offering care to the uninsured. This clinic was established jointly in 2000 and is currently open one half day a week with the support of volunteers from both churches seeing 25-35 patients a week.

Medical Mission to the Dominican Republic
A medical mission trip started in 2004 to the Dominican Republic has been supported by COS working with the Church of the Holy Comforter. Missioners and financial support have helped the Mission of San Matias in Santana Banai.
