Outreach at St. Peter’s
Sharing love, joy, and kindness
We’re All About the Human Family…
At St. Peter’s, we believe that every human being is born worthy of love, kindness, and compassion. By giving back to our neighbors near and far, we’re fulfilling our great commission of bringing God’s love into the world.
The organizations we support cover a wide range -- from schools and orphanages to refugees and the unhoused; from mental and physical health organizations to prison ministries and survivors of human trafficking. No matter where we come from or what our life experiences have been, we all deserve a chance to seek a better life -- one full of love, joy, and kindness.
Each month we highlight a different organization from our list of Grant Recipients. We showcase them on our website, church patio, through guest preachers, and our Thrift ShopGiving Jar.
This month, we’re highlighting Episcopal Community Services (ECS). Originally founded in 1927 to provide social welfare programs for "those who might otherwise be forgotten," ECS expanded its scope in 1954 to provide programs to address the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of all San Diegans. ECS was incorporated in 1955 and obtained its first government contract with San Diego County to provide counseling and jobs for men released from prison. Today, ECS provides over $45 million in health and human services in homelessness, mental health, substance use treatment, and early childhood education, impacting more than 10,500 clients and family members in the San Diego region.
