About
Founder & Leadership
Chaplain Patricia Lee
Carry the Cross Outreach Ministries was founded through a calling to serve vulnerable communities with compassion, integrity, and practical support. The ministry works to bring hope, digital access, and mentorship into the community. Over time, God formed in me a calling to serve the poor and the vulnerable with compassion, integrity, and consistency. Now God has turned the page, and Carry the Cross is the vessel through which that calling is expressed—bringing practical help and hope into the community.
Based in Providence, Rhode Island, Carry the Cross Outreach Ministries serves individuals and families seeking access to digital skills, mentorship, and faith-based encouragement.
