Serve San Antonio
Under the Bridge Ministry
Sunday, May 21
Meet at 9:30 am on Sunday morning to help finish preparing the meal. Leave the church at 10:30 a.m. for the I-35 Bridge at Brooklyn and Alamo Streets. On the third Sunday of every other month St. David's is responsible for the cooking and serving meals to homeless community "Under the Bridge" downtown. It is a wonderful experience for anyone from elementary age and up. Bring your children and your neighbors and discover the fellowship and joy of giving that results from this special and very needed ministry. Join us as we feed 200 people, give smiles, receive smiles and come away feeling very grateful for the opportunity to serve. Contact Jacki and Bob Bucci at rbucci@swbell.net for more information.
Snack Pak 4 Kids
We are excited to be entering our second year of partnership with Wilshire Elementary and Snack Pak 4 Kids, and we are often asked how to get involved or help. Volunteering your time and peanut butter donations are always welcome, and we encourage these things! However, this is an extremely important, yet expensive ministry and our need of monetary donations is continuous. Each Snack Pak roughly costs only $3.65, so every donation, no matter how large or small, goes a very long way in giving a secure source of food to a chronically hungry child at our neighboring school. Thank you all for your support of Snack Pak 4 Kids and please contact me to get involved and with any questions!

Exceptional Adults Ministry: Worship, Bowling
During the school year the Exceptional Adults meet on Saturdays at St. David's at 10:30 a.m. for fellowship and worship. They are then transported to Ft. Sam Houston bowling alley for lunch and 3 games of bowling. The day concludes at 2:45 p.m. and the participants are picked up at Ft. Sam Houston by 3:00 p.m. We are grateful to Suzan Reagor for leading this ministry, and she is always in need of volunteers. This is a great way to exercise and have a good time.
Meals on Wheels
Over the years, we have had a large number of people help with Meals on Wheels. The Christian Senior Services prepares the meals at their headquarters and they deliver them to our kitchen along with instructions. Our volunteers arrive at about 11:00 a.m. to pick up their deliveries. Deliveries usually take 30 to 45 minutes to complete. We have had such a wonderful group of “angels” who have helped with this service and without exception, they will tell you how much it means to them. It is such a needed service and so appreciated- a true Godly outreach. Drivers are currently needed - please contact Bob Bucci at 210-240-5268 if you can help.
Trader Joe's Food Ministry
The St. David's food ministry program through Trader Joe's needs your help! We need two people to pick up from Trader Joe's and unpack at St. David's on Thursdays and Saturdays. This food helps the The Lighthouse and Under the Bridge programs. If you can assist, please contact Courtney Gibb at 210-683-5989.
