Outreach at St. Barnabas

Saint Barnabas has a strong and viable outreach ministry.

We view our building as a community resource.  Alcoholics Anonymous meets four times a week at St. Barnabas.  We sponsor a Cub Scout Pack.  The Coast Guard Auxiliary and Allegheny Valley Habitat for Humanity regularly use our facility for various meetings, programs and educational events.

Alcoholics Anonymous meets at St. Barnabas Church every week.  Their meeting schedule is:

Monday Evening at 10:30 a.m. & 8:00 p.m.

Tues., Weds., Thurs., and Fri., morning at 10:30 a.m.   All meetings are in the church dining hall upstairs.

We are active in Habitat for Humanity, providing funding, volunteers, and facility space for our local affiliate.  You can visit the International site at www.habitat.org

We house a satellite office of the Hope Center, a counseling center for victims of domestic violence.

In cooperation with the Allegheny Valley Association of Churches, Saint Barnabas is one of six shelter churches in the Interfaith Hospitality Network run by the AVAC, which houses homeless families until they can re-establish their lives and home.

Family Promise is the new name of the NIHN.  It now is the umbrella for the IHN.   

The AVAC shelter system is one of only two Interfaith Hospitality Network organizations in Western Pennsylvania.

We are one of only two shelters in Allegheny County (the other is the Salvation Army in downtown Pittsburgh) that offers housing to homeless families.

We also are active in Africa through the African Team Ministries as we support their sales of goods two weeks in November each year which helps to build schools, etc.

Our Angel Tree at Christmas time provides gifts to the local Child Treatment Center at the Bradley Center Home .  Our church provides gifts for 100 children every year.

Bradley Center    

Who We Are The Bradley Center was founded in 1905 in Oakmont, Pennsylvania. Operating as the Elizabeth A. Bradley Home for Children for many years, it first served as an orphanage and later as a residential treatment center for abused, neglected and dependent children. Today, The Bradley Center has evolved into a nationally-accredited regional network of behavioral healthcare and child welfare services in southwestern Pennsylvania. We currently have three Residential Treatment Facilities located in Fox Chapel, Canonsburg, and Mt. Lebanon. We also have a Therapeutic Foster Care program located in Edgewood/Swissvale. The Bradley Center has earned the quality distinction of accreditation by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO). Our Mission The Bradley Center is dedicated to the pursuit of quality and excellence in providing highly individualized, comprehensive services to children and youth with mental, emotional and developmental disabilities and their families.
