St. Benedict's June Donation: PALS

June 18, 2024/ Dennis Powell

The PALS Fund helps low-income seniors pay veterinary bills for their beloved animal friends. From preventative care to emergency procedures, the fund provides much-needed support for seniors who simply cannot afford the rising cost of vet care. In 2023, thanks to the support of 245 individual donors, The PALS Fund helped more seniors than ever before! In all, the Senior Center paid out $79,110 to 41 vets to assist 208 seniors with care for 231 pets. SBC is helping them in this good work through our tithing. SBC will be supporting PALS in June.

Saint Benedict's Episcopal Church

Worship is like a drama: The clergy, ministers and musicians are the prompters, the people are the actors, and God is the audience.
- Søren Kierkegaard

At St Benedict we celebrate with awe and obligation in a construct called liturgy. Liturgy is a Greek word that means “the work of the people.” Our services are focused through scripture reading, song, prayers, preaching, and the liturgy of the table, known also as Holy Eucharist.
