Our Outreach Programs
A Church with a Passion for Outreach
Whether it is reaching out to those in our own community or abroad, St. Augustine’s has a passion for helping others. While we do various service and outreach events throughout the year, there are certain local ministries that we support on a regular basis: Laundry Love, Story Box, Christ Church Community Meal.
StoryBox Ministry
The mission of StoryBox is to help local children perform better in school by getting good-quality books into the hands and homes of children in low income areas of Augusta. We distribute books to local kids through neighborhood community centers, theRichmond County Health Departments, local soup kitchens, community outreach events and Richmond County schools.
Chances are, you either have children’s books you aren’t using or you know someone who does. Please consider donating them to StoryBox. We are always accepting donations of new and gently used children’s books. Books can be dropped off at St. Augustine of CanterburyEpiscopal Church during regular office hours or arrangements can be made for pick up for larger donations. In addition, if you or your organization would be interested in hosting a book drive, we will be happy to supply you with the materials to get started! For information please contact Amanda Peacock at 706-830-4719.
Community Meal
On the second Saturday of each month our volunteers prepare and serve meals to guests from the kitchen at the Byllesby Center and others who choose to be served. The meals are intended to be hot meals that are served inside with guests seated at the table in a safe and comfortable space. After meals are consumed at the table, to go meals are also provided. Personnel care items and clothing is also distributed at this time.
