Volunteers visit the Carver Center in Port Chester, New York regularly, and assist Carver’s clients in shopping for healthy foods. We help our neighbors deal with the issue of food insecurity.
The Oasis Shelter is a haven for men in New Rochelle looking for a safe, warm place to spend the night. Once each month, our volunteers prepare and deliver a hot meal to be served to men and women at the Oasis Shelter.
Volunteers are needed to prepare a simple, yet nutritious, pasta meal that feeds approximately 60 grateful friends at the Oasis Shelter. A list of all the things that are necessary for the meal preparation will be provided. If you buy the ingredients and supplies, Philoptochos will reimburse you. Otherwise, we can make all necessary purchases and bring them to you. You may volunteer to prepare the meal at your home or in the Church kitchen. You may volunteer to deliver the meal or we can do that for you. You may even team up with a friend. There are many ways to volunteer!

DATES
Grace’s Kitchen first opened in th early 1970’s, when parishioners of Grace Episcopal Church began providing soup and sandwiches to their hungry neighbors in the heart of White Plains. Today the mission of Grace’s Kitchen remains the same. Sandwiches and canned goods are available for take home each day, and on Fridays, individuals are welcome to take enough food to last the weekend.
Adult Religious Education
Learning about the Orthodox Faith is a lifelong endeavor. Monday School (for the grownups) is designed to be an introduction to our common life in Christ through study of the Holy Scriptures and the Tradition of the Church. The themes change with each season, and each separate class is intended to stand alone. The class is open to anyone who is interested in learning and is informal in tone: participants are welcome to come and go as they like and are encouraged to participate actively. Attendance at these classes is highly encouraged for inquirers and those preparing for their reception into the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church.
The Young Adult League (YAL) invites all community members aged 18 to 35 to join in our dynamic engagement of social, spiritual, and philanthropic activities. We foster an environment of fellowship by collaborating with other young adult groups in Westchester and New York City, thus broadening the scope of Orthodox Christian community support. Recognizing the vital role of young adults as the future of our church, we are committed to empowering our members to embody and practice the teachings of our Faith in their daily lives. Join us in this vital mission to strengthen our bonds and deepen our shared faith experience. To learn more please email Fr. Demetrios at frdemetrios@holytrinitynr.org
