CITY (Church In The Yard)

CITY (Church In The Yard) is an outreach program to the poor and homeless in and around the center of Nashville. The ministry is anchored by Fr. Bill Denler at Holy Trinity Episcopal Church. St. Paul’s has been working with Fr. Bill for over 15 years. Weather permitting, the homeless gather in the side yard of Holy Trinity on Sunday around noon. Fr. Bill offers a full communion service followed by a meal.

On the third Sunday of each month, St. Paul’s prepares and serves a hot meal. In addition to the meal, we provide ToGo bags with a peanut butter sandwich, a banana and a variety of other snack foods for an additional light meal. We also provide seasonal clothing and other basic necessities, such as jackets, Khaki pants, toothpaste and brushes, etc.

Volunteers are always welcome. Ways to participate include:
1) helping to pack the ToGo bags
2) making peanut butter sandwiches
3) helping to serve the meal at Holy Trinity
