In addition to the many churches in Clay, with affiliations with many denominations, some faith-based organizations have been formed as a way to serve others, drawing volunteers from many churches.
The Nest:
Started by Clay resident Hal Wycoff, this group includes people of many faiths and has now spanned to include volunteers from other areas. Their focus is on helping homeless people found under the interstate in Birmingham. With or without a sermon, these desperate souls receive kindly, practical assistance, which now includes medical care. News reports have focused on the group's activities. Contact Hal Wycoff at 681-4921 for more information.
The Pantry:
Clay churches joined together to provide for those who find themselves in desparate need of food. The items are distributed through Clay United Methodist Church. Those in need can pick up the items once a month.
Sav·A·Life:
When a young woman finds herself unexpectantly pregnant, she might need some information and guidance. Sav·A·Life moved into Clay a few years ago, after renovating an old home. Some people in Clay also volunteer at the center.
