Teach Summer Church School

Try on teaching for a week! We provide curriculum, morning schedule and lots of encouragement. You provide a willingness to try something new and love for the children of our church.


All-Church Retreat

The All-Church retreat is a great way (actually, the best way) to start your summer.

We are going to NorthBay, located two hours south on Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. Our retreat begins with dinner on Friday and ends after lunch on Sunday. The cost is $130 for adults or $65 for children (3–10), and under-3s are free. Private rooms plus bath available at slightly higher cost ($160 adult; $80 children 3-10). Includes all meals and access to activities.


Vacation Bible School & PresbyCamp

“David, the Shepherd King”

Hear stories of how a young shepherd boy became king of all Israel. Chosen by God, this almost-overlooked youngest son grows up to be the hero of the Jewish nation.


Chancel Drama

“Once Upon a Parable”

Come be part of our group of energetic storytellers who will try to capture the humor and contemporary nature of some of Jesus’ most familiar parables.


Loaves & Fishes

Volunteering for Loaves and Fishes, whether it’s donating food, or money or time, is an opportunity to be fed as well. It’s an opportunity to join and be a part of our community of faith in action, as we do what our Lord asked of us. As we prepare food, make meals, serve and clean up, we are serving our most vulnerable neighbors. And I think you will find that in the midst of all the hubub and action and swirl, if you can take a moment to breathe, you’ll find that you are being fed, too.

So please, come, be fed. Be fed by making meat loaves or cookies. Be fed by donating to St. Mary’s. Be fed by feeding the less fortunate. Volunteer for Loaves and Fishes. August 18th at St. Mary’s Cathedral.

  • Saturday, August 18
  • All ages
  • St. Mary’s Cathedral, 151 North Warren Street, Trenton, NJ
  • Sign Ups for Meatloaf & Cookie Making, as well as jobs on Saturday in Trenton, to be announced soon – watch this space!
