Ways to Help
in the age of Covid-19
During this time of the global pandemic of Covid-19, we are all looking for ways to help our fellow humans on the journey. In the midst of loss and pain, helping others gives us a renewed sense of who God made us to be. Thank you for continually seeking to be the hands and feet of Christ in this remarkably difficult season in human history.
Check back here regularly when you feel restless to serve–we will try to help you find a way.
Ways to Help
1. Stay Home. As much as you’re able, you join the whole human family if you are able to stay out of the way! That means both that you don’t put yourself at risk, or anyone else. And that makes a huge difference for our overworked healthcare workers.
2. Wear A Mask. If you have to go out, that is just part of reality. But wearing a mask slows the spread both from you to others and from others to you. It also shows a commitment to the community and conscientiousness about the collective safety of our world. Wearing a mask shows you take this seriously and you care about your neighbor’s health. You will give others comfort when you show that you care. Don’t have a mask? Here’s a video by our very own Deacon Susie that shows you how to make one at home. https://saintbarnabas.org/2020/04/14/make-a-fabric-mask-at-home/
3. Sew Masks for Those in Need. Safety masks are needed for many groups throughout Arizona. Saint Barnabas will continue to designate places where the masks can be sent. Learn more about how you can help and where to send them by clicking here.
4. The Great Saint Barnabas Food Drive. Join us the fourth Saturday of every month when we host a drive-through food drive at Saint Barnabas to provide food for our missions partners. Click here to learn more.
