Our students reflect all levels of English fluency and represent many nationalities. Sessions are either one-to-one or in small groups no larger than five students. All of our tutors are native English speakers. For those interested in studying English, or in becoming a tutor, please contact the Church Office.

Showers of Blessings is an ecumenical outreach ministry to homeless people started by the Episcopal Diocese of San Diego. We provide hot showers, a change of clothing (including new underwear and socks), haircuts, a bite to eat and camaraderie. Mostly it is a safe place to come, relax a bit and be accepted.
