Sharing Ministry
Having friends with whom to share ministry is a blessing; it widens our perspectives and gives us a chance to make more of an impact through cooperative efforts. Explore these partners in ministry:

The South African AIDS Orphan Ministry provides resources to children orphaned from the death of their parents to AIDS. The ministry is run by Roman Catholic Sisters Monica and Heidi who have given their lives to serving these orphans. We support this ministry in partnership with other Memphis Episcopal Churches, including Church of the Holy Communion, Grace- St. Luke's and St. Mary's Cathedral. Education is provided for the orphans, while their adoptive families (often the child's grandparents) are provided with resources to feed and clothe their children.
