Community Life at Corpus Christi
The Church of Corpus Christi has a long history of parish community involvement and engagement that reflects its name as the “Body of Christ”. Parishioners are invited to participate in any of the existing ministries, committees, and activities in the parish or offer their ideas, gifts, and talents in new ways.
Specific Committees that focus on Community Life are listed below. If you have questions or would like to participate, please contact us at 651.639.8888.
Social Connections Committee
The Social Connections Committee suggests and coordinates social events for the parish throughout the year. Events are listed on the Parish Calendar. More information available in the Social Connections section of the website.
Social Justice Committee
The Social Justice Committee provides opportunities for parishioners to participate in local and global charity projects, advocating for particular issues that support justice here and abroad, and raising money for those in need. Background Information is provided for policy initiatives, as well as guidance for advocacy for working with public representatives and organizations. For more information on ways to participate, visit the Social Justice section of our website.
Annual Rummage Sale
Each year parishioners contribute items toward a community rummage sale hosted by Corpus Christi. Many hands are needed! Participation ranges from picking up large items, sorting through collected “stuff”, ticketing everything that will be sold, and staffing the day of the sale. There is always a job for anyone who is interested — before, after, and during the sale.
Red Cross Blood Drive
A Blood drive is held each spring in the Corpus Christi Gathering Area. Parishioners are welcome to call and coordinate donors and help at the Blood Drive itself with registration and hospitality.
