Last Chance: Support Hubbard House |
Serving Duval and Baker Counties, Hubbard House, a full-service certified domestic violence center, has answered more than 108,750 hotline calls and sheltered more than 47,000 survivors and their children in its life-saving and life-changing 45-year history.
The victims and children who come to shelter are provided with warm beds, hot meals and personal amenities. Counseling and group support are made available to every sheltered family member, both adults and their children. Victims also receive services from a victim advocate who helps them to avail themselves of public resources and housing assistance. Services from a court advocate and job coach are also available. Shelter and services are always free to victims, and the goals are always the same: victim safety and empowerment.
And you can help! Right now, Hubbard House is in need of:
- Non-perishable, unopened food items (canned proteins like peanut butter or tuna, canned veggies and fruits, boxed meals, salt, pepper, drinks).
- Diapers (preferably size 3 and up) and any type of formula.
- Linens: XL twin sheets, towels, blankets during winter months.
- Paper products and household cleaning supplies (paper plates, napkins, toilet paper, paper towels, plastic silverware, etc. – no Styrofoam, please).
- Break-resistant dishes, pots and pans, can openers, eating utensils.
- Toiletries: full-size shampoos, conditioners, toothpaste, deodorant, tampons and sanitary pads.
- Umbrellas
- NEW children's underwear, sizes 3T through 16. Undershirts, training bras and socks for children are also welcome.
You can drop off these items in the narthex through May 22nd. If you'd like to help deliver these items to Hubbard House, please let Kathleen know!

Normally, we go out with the ladies of the church, but our group has gotten so big, we have decided to try something new! Join the ladies of the church on May 24th for good food from Bono’s and fellowship in the Parish Hall.
RSVP to Rose Reynolds or the Church Office by Sunday, May 22nd so we can make sure we have enough food. Due to a generous donation from an anonymous donor, the price per person has been greatly reduced. Instead, we ask that you contribute as you are able so that we may continue having this wonderful event.

Register for Summer Camp Today! |
As a ministry of the Episcopal Diocese of Florida, Camp Weed provides summer camp experiences for over 500 campers every summer. Our mission is to build a safe environment that strengthens relationships between campers, staff, and God; that encourages participants to learn important life skills, to try new things, and to deepen their faith; and that allows all people to be themselves.
Our programming includes a variety of activities to engage campers and to help promote their spiritual, physical, and mental growth. Some of these activities include: kayaking, archery, wall climbing, swimming, arts and crafts, and so much more. Campers are divided into large groups, small groups, and cabin groups throughout the day to give them opportunities to get to know others, themselves, and God a little bit better.
