Opportunites for community involvement and generosity:

• New Shelter for Families: Family Promise Metro East

  JOIN exists to support the efforts of homeless individuals and families to transition out of homelessness into permanent housing. Our efforts are directed at individuals sleeping outside or in their car in the Portland Metro area. Our service provision is not dependent on age, gender, race, ethnicity, faith, culture, language, sexual identity, specific diagnosis, or identifiable issue.  See the link below.

• We are called to feed the hungry.       

        Ascension Women volunteer monthly in our neighborhood with Rahab's Sisters.
        Contact Sharon Grigar at the Parish Office for information.


The  mission at Rahab’s Sisters is to offer “Radical Hospitality” to women in the Portland Metro area that have been marginalized by the sex industry, domestic violence, poverty, substance abuse, and homelessness.  See the link below.
