MLK Day of Service at The Chapel of the Holy Spirit, New Orleans

Last year’s day of service was a tremendous success, with participation from across the diocese. We hope you’ll join us again as we come together to make an even greater impact this year.

If you’re unable to join us in person, you can still take part by supporting the work through our Amazon wishlist. Your contribution of much-needed supplies helps make this ministry possible.
