Opportunities for Outreach and Service

There are a number of events and ministry opportunities throughout the year for us to reach out and serve our community.

• Asbury Dining Center Ministry - serving meals to the hungry.
• RIT Lutheran Campus Ministry- Lutheran and Episcopal ministries work together to provide worship services, fellowship, and free meals on Sunday evenings for RIT students at The Table.  Atonement, and other Lutheran and Episcopal churches nearby, help to supply and serve the meals.
• International Welcome Potluck Dinner - an outreach ministry for refugees in collaboration with Twelve Corners Presbyterian Church, Our Lady Queen of Peace/St. Thomas More Parish, and Catholic Family Center. 
• Annual Rummage Sale - benefits community ministries.
• Our Donation & Recycling Center - we collect year 'round for every day items, and hold seasonal collections as well to support local and worldwide relief* ​
