Our sister parish is St. Peter Claver in Punta Gorda, Belize, a Jesuit parish.
SFX provides support primarily through our fair trade program. The proceeds from our twice monthly fair trade sales and from our annual Fair Trade Christmas Market benefit St. Peter Claver.
Fair Trade
Parishioners organize and sell Fair Trade goods as a way to promote aligning some of our material purchases with our Christian values.
Fair Trade offers coffee, tea, chocolate, cards, and some textiles.
Proceeds go directly to the needs of our Sister Parish St. Peter Claver in Punta Gorda, Belize.
We sell on the first and third Sundays after the morning masses unless otherwise noted.
How to Support
Volunteer to help with regular Sunday sales (monthly or bi-monthly opportunities available)
Volunteer to coordinate or work at the Christmas Market
Volunteer with the Fair Trade/Sister Parish committee (monthly meetings)
