Outreach at St. George's takes many forms. A portion of regular weekly contributions is sent to the Diocese of Bethlehem where it is joined with the offerings of other congregations to support local outreach efforts, such as New Bethany Ministries, and national and international relief efforts, such as Episcopal Relief & Development. St. George's has supported the diocesan New Hope Campaign to raise additional capital funding for our sister diocese of Kajo-Kegi in Southern Sudan and new outreach efforts in the Diocese of Bethlehem. The Chair of the Outreach Committee is Shari Vandergast. Recent outreach efforts have included: HELLERTOWN AREA MINISTERIUM GULF COAST TRANSPORTATION FUND (to assist volunteers aiding Katrina relief efforts) HELLERTOWN FOOD BANK HELLERTOWN LIBRARY ELEVATOR FUND BEARS FOR NEW BETHANY SCHOOL SUPPLIES FOR SHERIDAN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
