Serving the Community​

Mission and Evangelism

Picture

​At St. Silouan’s, we strive to throw open the doors of our parish, allowing for the grace of Christ to touch those who are in any kind of need or want.

The Missions and Evangelism ministry tries to find ways of bridging dialogue and engagement between the parish and the wider community, so that the church can be in dialogue with society.

Like the first churches of early Christianity, We provide regular ‘hospitality’ to the community within and without, creating opportunities to connect with our neighbours in Regent Park, and the wider Toronto community, inviting all to “come and see.”

If you would like to contribute to this mission please reach out to Sub Deacon Michael.

Outreach Ministry

Picture
Are you outgoing?

A natural networker with a need to build community?

The Outreach ministry welcomes and orients newcomers, helping them to navigate and build connection with our community. 

But just as importantly, this ministry nurtures the existing bonds within the parish, developing creative ways to address human needs:
​
  • Organizing meal and visitation trains for those in need, whether due to illness, injury or a recent birth
  • Recognizing life events such as birthdays, births, weddings, baptisms, and death
  • Staying connected with those who have been absent for an extended period

Fundraising and Growth

Our mission is to grow, and we strive to grow our mission.  

This ministry is responsible for the processes that enable the contribution of time and treasure to sustain St. Silouan's our mission.

Organizers, networkers, researchers and creatives, we need you to:

  • Help address the practical needs of the parish.
  • Stay connected with the other ministries to stay abreast of those needs.
  • Aid our ministries in financial forecasting and planning.
  • Creatively build fundraising opportunities.
  • ​Research and apply to external funding sources. 

Can you help?

Special events

Ordinations, special guest visits, saints’ days, Slavas…
A year in the life of our community is packed!
 
And on feast days like Christmas and Pascha – we all pitch in and pull out all the stops.   We know how to celebrate! 
 
The Special Events ministry organizes the events that celebrate these milestones in the life of our parish.
Working closely with other ministries from Parish Beautification, to Communication to Agape, the special events group plans the event and coordinates the necessary actions:  decoration, food, clean-up, signing-up volunteers etc.
 
Want to help with organizing special events that bring our community together?
