St. Theresa’s Social Service Ministry was officially expanded and formalized in 1983. We work with individuals regardless of their faith, race, or situation in life.

Over the years we have become a hub in the Southern region of Marion County for the offering of various services. Over 100,000 guests and family members were served in FY 2026.

Today we have broadened our network and capability to provide services by partnering with other individuals, groups, and churches. We are the largest Agency within the Belleview Safety Net Alliance working with the Belleview Mayors Office and other area Social Service Agencies.
