Outreach

Community Involvement

Community Involvement

At St. Chad’s, outreach is at the heart of our mission. We are committed to serving our community, supporting local partners, and providing opportunities for all members to make a meaningful difference. Through hands-on volunteer work, advocacy, and partnership with local organizations, we seek to address needs, uplift voices, and create lasting impact.

Whether you are new to the church or have been with us for years, there is a place for you to contribute your time, talents, and resources. Every act of service strengthens our community, fosters connection, and reflects Christ’s love in action. Join us in making a difference — together, we can transform lives and share hope throughout Albuquerque and beyond.
