Outreach

“We, for our part, will devote ourselves to prayer and to serving the word.”  — Acts 6:4

 

Outreach and service to our neighboring communities is a very important part of who we are as Christians. On Sundays, we are nourished by God and from the Gospel teachings we learn how to go forth into the world to serve others.

PS 15 Direct Support & Back to School Supplies & Christmas Gifts

Since March 2020, Holy Apostles has supported the children, family and staff at PS 15 in Red Hook in a variety of ways. We have offered direct support by paying rent, bills, providing clothing, groceries, cell phones and grocery gift cards. We have moved 2 families from a shelter to permanent housing, furnishing the apartments. Every Thanksgiving we provide 10 fully cooked Thanksgiving meals. Every fall we provide back to school supplies for 150 students, every Christmas we give gifts to over 150 children and their families. We have also provided microgrants to teachers for classroom supplies & self care.

God’s Love We Deliver

Since October 2023 we have partnered with God’s Love We Deliver to deliver meals in Brooklyn. We serve as a Thanksgiving meal distribution center as well.
