| In November 2004, 800 people from diverse backgrounds throughout Pinellas County gathered together to form the F.A.S.T. Organization to provide congregations with a tool to do effective justice ministry in Pinellas County. In 2005, F.A.S.T. gathered 1,200 people to take action on community problems at a Nehemiah Action Assembly (held in Holy Family's church). In 2006, the number of people present at the Nehemiah Action grew to over 1,700 people, and there were more than 2,000 attending the 2007 Nehemiah Action. More than 2,400 attended the Nehemiah Action in 2008, and Holy Family had more than 320 people in attendance. At present, Holy Family Parish is one of 37 congregations participating in F.A.S.T. In addition, Fr. John Tapp is currently co-chairman of the organization. |
