St. Paul Lutheran Church







Social Ministries
 

Mission Statement:
Our goal is to be an action oriented committee that will address the needs of our congregation, our community and our world. Our congregation will be our first priority.
For community and worldwide assistance, we will place a priority with ELCA sponsored activities.
 
The following are the programs with which the Social Ministry team are currently involved.
 
  • Good Neighbors - St Paul and other Churches in the area refer non-members who are in need of financial help, such as utilities bills, rent etc. They must fill out forms and bring actual bills into the office to prove they are truly in need.
  • B C E A C (Blount County Ecumenical Action Council) - A county wide initiative to help those in need. Currently two St. Paul members are on the council.
     
  • Habitat for Humanity Restore - A store in downtown Maryville where building supplies and furniture can be donated. 
  • Haven House - A home for battered women.
  • Card Ministry - Sends cards to members for life events.
  • Bereavement Luncheons - Hosted following funeral services at St. Paul.
     
  • Thanksgiving Baskets and the Angel Tree Gifts -  Are provided by our congregation for those in need.
  • Community Food Connection - Members of St. Paul  help staff this ministry.
     
  • Meals To Members -  A group of volunteers who  bring meals to members of our congregation after surgery or injury.
     
  • House of Courage -  A home for women who choose to have their babies without any support or even encouragement from their families, hence the name House of Courage.
