For God is not unjust so as to overlook your work and the love you have demonstrated for God's name by having served and continuing to serve the holy ones.
— Hebrews 6:10
We have many ways for you to share your God-given talents within the parish and out into the community. Our Director of Engagement can help you find your place at Epiphany.
To help you get started, you can access our spiritual gifts assessment below. Then you can download our latest Ministry Guide to view and print. We appreciate you being good stewards by sharing your time and talent with us.
A parish is only as strong as the love its parishioners share. It takes a team to plan, organize, or serve in roles that make our parish vibrant. Please consider at least one of our ministries as a way for you to share your God-given time and talent.
Catholic Social Teaching is grounded in God. It began with God’s loving decision to create and commune with humanity. It continued through God’s steadfast commitment to a broken, vulnerable, and impoverished human society. It was voiced through the great consciences of the prophets. And it was fulfilled in Jesus Christ the Good Shepherd who, though he sacrificed everything for us, only asked that we love one another as he loved us (Jn. 15:12).
As a result, Epiphany has embraced this work of loving one another as God has loved us by committing itself to the Church’s social teaching and basing its social action in the Eucharist.
The mission of Epiphany’s Social Responsibility ministry is to form parishioners in Catholic Social Teaching and to responsibly embrace the world with the love and service of Jesus Christ. The Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church tells us that “Love faces a vast field of work…So many needy brothers and sisters are waiting for help, so many who are oppressed are waiting for justice, so many who are unemployed are waiting for a job, so many peoples are waiting for respect.” Each one of us has a special part to play in participating in God’s work of love and we look forward to seeing your contribution!

Epiphany Catholic Church makes real its foundation in the church’s social mission by supporting organizations that serve the most vulnerable and work for economic and social justice. One way we do that is through our Sharing Grants, typically grants of $750-$1000. We favor small organizations for whom our modest grants will create the greatest impact; organizations with more than a $2.5 million annual budget will not be considered.
