St. Luke’s Sunday Soup Kitchen

​

Lawrencefield supports the Soup Kitchen at St. Luke’s on Wheeling Island. St. Luke’s Soup Kitchen operates on Sundays when other soup kitchens are closed. Lawrencefield is responsible for providing food and serving lunch the second Sunday of each month. Parishioners take turns providing this feeding  ministry.

OWL Projects (Outside the Walls of Lawrencefield)

​

Throughout the year we partner with six local and regional groups and organizations that provide ministry and essential services to our neighbors. These month long projects provide opportunities to for our members and friends to donate things such as warm clothing, hygiene items, and school supplies to be distributed  by the partner organization.  ​At other times we provide the opportunity to provide monetary donations to support the essential work being done.

​

Recent partners for our Owl Projects have included:

• ​Street Moms

• Project Hope

• Congregations for Caring which supports Health Right, a free clinic

• Dig Deep Appalachian Water Project in McDowell Country

• Episcopal Relief & Development Appalachian Hurricane Recovery 

• House of Carpenter's annual Christmas kids program.

 

United Thank Offering

​

Parish members gather of coins and dollars offered day to day during the year as their expression of gratitude for the blessing we see daily. These funds combined with the offering of other parishes become mission grants for work in the US and around the world.

​

Adopt-a-Highway Clean-Up

​

Four times a year, a Lawrencefield work force picks up trash along the entire length of Table Rock Lane in cooperation with the West Virginia Department of Transportation's Adopt-a-Highway program.

Rector's Discretionary Fund

​

A monthly collection supports this fund, which in turn helps to support to individuals and to local organizations that directly assist Wheeling residents.
