What We DoSalem Area Ecumenical Ministries (SAEM) serves to strengthen the community by working together with area churches, local service agencies, businesses, and individuals to provide food, clothing and educational resources to those in need. Organized in 1997, SAEM is a gathering of lay people and pastors from Salem, western Roanoke County and local service agencies collaborating in the name of Christ to serve people in our community.
