Alcoholics Anonymous (AA): Weekly meetings are held every Sunday at 7:00pm in the Parish Meeting Room, located at the school. AA is the international mutual aid fellowship founded in 1935 by Bill Wilson and Dr. Bob Smith in Akron, Ohio, whose stated "The primary purpose" is to help alcoholics "stay sober and help other alcoholics achieve sobriety."
Cathedral Kitchen (SMLS): St. Mary of the Lakes Students provide a brown bag lunch, drink, dessert, and decorate paper placemats. Located in Camden, Cathedral Kitchen feeds the homeless and their families twice a day. Students remain after school to prepare the meals with all food donated by SML School families. Each month, a different grade level participates by making the meals and preparing them for delivery to the Cathedral Kitchen in Camden on the first Friday of each month.

Confirmation Community Service: Students in grades 6-8 perform several hours of community service to prepare for the Sacrament of Confirmation. When students engage in service, they benefit others on a personal, community, and global level.

Feed My Sheep Casserole: We are all called to care for the poor and vulnerable, and one way is in the form of food. Our Y.E.S.-sponsored casserole program invites everybody to bake, then freeze, a casserole of any kind for the hungry. Casserole donations may be dropped off at the Parish Office. Your food is donated to the Christian Caring Center in Browns Mills and God’s Precious Infants in Gloucester City.

Further 72: Our “as needed” ministry serves any temporary needs that aren’t addressed through our existing ministries, just like those Jesus sent out as laborers in His field. If you know of a need we can help with, please email [email protected]

Prayer Shawl Ministry: Anyone who enjoys knitting/crocheting are ideal ministers who pray while creating a shawl in the intimacy of their own home for someone who is ill, suffered a loss, or has other hardships. Shawls are also given freely with love and can be requested at the parish office.

St. Mary Apostolic Reach-Out Team (SMART): SMART dedicates itself to sharing with the hungry/homeless in our parish and local community. Members reach out to those in need and share food for nourishment of the body and spiritual resources for the soul. Each year, we host a Christmas dinner at the Trenton Area Soup Kitchen.
