Where do we fit in our community?

As Episcopalians, we are followers of Jesus Christ, and both our worship and our mission are in Christ’s name.  The Episcopal Church welcomes all who worship Jesus Christ, in 111 dioceses and regional areas in 17 nations. The Episcopal Church is a member province of the worldwide Anglican Communion.

The mission of the church, as stated in the Book of Common Prayer’s catechism (p. 855), is “to restore all people to unity with God and each other in Christ.” As part of that mission, we’re following Jesus into loving, liberating and life-giving relationship with God, with each other and with the earth as the Episcopal branch of the Jesus Movement.  We seek every day to love God with our whole heart, mind and soul, and to love our neighbors as ourselves (Matthew 22:36-40).

Sussex Outreach Services (SOS) is the social ministry arm of the Cooperating Churches of Sussex (CCOS) serving those, that are seeking food, clothing, counseling, educational training, preventive health programming and referrals. We serve all families and individuals in the Hamilton School District, which includes Sussex, the Town of Lisbon, and parts of Merton.  It is the mission of Sussex Outreach Services (S0S), to meet the immediate and long term needs of individuals and families in the Hamilton School District by providing food, informational resources, client advocacy and general assistance. SOS builds community awareness and volunteerism to encourage our community members to help support our mission in their own unique way. To improve lives and build strong community awareness through: supportive listening, awareness, assistance, and advocacy.
