Mission & Justice
May God’s peace and promise sustain and encourage you, and fill you with joy as we see new growth and healing around us. Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness (Lamentations 3:23).
Bridge of Faith is a ministry in Whittier established to provide housing and support for young women leaving the foster care system. They have a need for any set of skills, from giving computer classes to home repair.

The Interfaith Food Center
does tremendous work with incredible efficiency,
but their resources are presently very low and they are in in desperate need of supplies, particularly:
+canned tuna or chicken +beef stew +canned beans (any kind) +dry beans +chili +hearty soups +canned pastas
+noodles, macaroni +rice +canned fruit +jelly +peanut butter +pancake mix +baking mix +cereal +oatmeal
+granola bars +baby food +formula
+shampoo +toothpaste +soap
Even though the season for housing the homeless and preparing their meals at St. Matthias has ended, we can still help out. As you travel on vacation during the next few months, save those small size hotel items (soap, shampoo, etc.) and donate them for the homeless. There will be a container in the Narthex for you to deposit these items. Little throw away items for us-can be deeply appreciated by someone who has nothing. Bless you as you travel, vacation and rest.
