Elizabeth House
Located next door in the former St. Augustine Friary, Elizabeth House provides for one year, a safe, warm, clean and loving home to women and their children while they make a transition from the poverty of homelessness, violence or addiction to lives of stability and greater self-sufficiency.
Elizabeth House's staff provides more than beds and food; they offer support, hospitality and advocacy, while fostering the unique gifts and talents of the women and children who make their home with us. Contact: Lori Ottolini (Director), Cheree Clark (Elizabeth House volunteer), Robin Andersen (Parish Volunteer Liason). On the Web at: www.oakehouse.org
The Giving Tree
At Christmas time, the parish sponsors our Giving Tree project to provide gifts for the residents of Elizabeth house. Robin Andersen, our parish liaison to Elizabeth House, coordinates the project.
