Isaiah 58 is another local organization that
receives a monetary donation from the ABC
sale. Established in 1970, Isaiah 58 Ministries was created to meet the needs of low-income individuals in our community through direct services including a food pantry, thrift store, healthy lifestyles programming, and women's group.
Their Mission Statement: Claiming our unity in Christ, in partnership with other churches, and in celebration of the human community, and in common service with other faiths and secular organizations, we intend to:
- Provide programs and services to meet the physical and spiritual needs of persons in our neighborhood and in our churches
- Promote opportunities for an ecumenical witness to Christ in the inner city and to exist as a sign of unity in a fragmented church and society

In addition to the monetary donation, St. Mark donates the clothing shed items and unsold ABC sale items to Isaiah 58 Ministries.
