Outreach to People without Housing

Please note, due to COVID-19 some of our outreach ministries are currently curtailed or on hold. For more information, please contact our office at office@stmarks-cityheights.org or use the form at the bottom of this page.

ID Vouchers

We can provide reduced fee California DMV ID vouchers for eligible unhoused guests. The completed voucher then needs to be taken directly to the DMV to obtain a California identification card. Vouchers are normally available during regular pantry hours (Wed & Thu 12-2 p.m.).

For more information about obtaining a CA DMV ID voucher, please contact our office at office@stmarks-cityheights.org or use the form at the bottom of this page.

Blessings in a Bag

Hungry neighbors quite regularly knock on our doors looking for immediate sustenance. That is why we like to keep a steady supply of ‘Blessings in a Bag’ on hand, that is, pre-packaged, easy to grab, lunch sized bags filled with non-perishable foods. While the Blessings in a Bag content isn’t ‘set’ it typically includes such items as: fruit/apple sauce cup, nutrition bar(s) (soft, for those with compromised teeth), slim jim, tuna pack, crackers, drink, wipes, fork, napkin, etc.

If you are unable to volunteer by spending in-person-time at St. Mark’s, donating/assembling Blessings in a Bag may be
for you, as this can be done on your own time and at your own pace. We can even arrange a pickup if needed!

For further details about Blessings in a Bag or to volunteer making them, please contact our office at office@stmarks-cityheights.org.
