How to be a Part of the Clifton Sanctuary Mission

Sunday night the music ministry cooked and served a meal at Clifton Sanctuary Ministries  

St. Andrews has only been involved with Clifton  since September.  Before that our church served the mission at Journey, another ministry devoted to the homeless and helping them become independent and a part of society.  Since September our Youth have served the men at Clifton twice and other individual members have served.  Our G2G Kids made up toiletry bags so that each new client at Clifton had enough toiletry items when they first enter Clifton.

The music ministry of St. Andrews, including Chancel Choir, Bell Choir, Men’s Chorus and Women’s Chorus decided to try their hand.  We had five delicious chicken casseroles, homemade green beans, garlic toast and homebaked cookies.  It was a yummy meal and so appreciated by the men at Clifton.  Our G2G Kids had made lunch bags pre-filled with granola bars, pudding cups, fruit cups and juice boxes.  These will be used by the men in the morning as they leave for their jobs.  All they need is a fresh sandwich to make a complete lunch.  The guys loved these because the G2G Kids decorated the bags with stickers and loving words.

We have six Sunday nights left in the year to serve at Clifton.  Think about organizing your friends at church to take one of these nights.  Sign up here

St. Andrews serves the fourth Sunday of each month.   We either cook before, cook at Clifton, or order pizza like we did on Christmas Eve last year (Big hit!)  We try to arrive around 5 p.m. so we can help set up the meal and get some laundry washing and drying for the guys.  Dinner is at 6 p.m so everyone is home at an early time.
