We should strive to keep our hearts open to the sufferings and wretchedness of other people, and pray continually that God may grant us that spirit of compassion which is truly the spirit of God.
– St. Vincent de Paul
St. Vincent de Paul was born on April 24, 1581 and he died on September 27, 1660. Today we celebrate his feast day (which is tomorrow) with a communal mass for our Vincentians at 11:30am. We support each other both spiritually and physically in our mission to help our neighbors in need and always look forward to getting together. As you shop online or in stores this week, please keep our pantry list in mind. Our Pantry needs are:
- Toilet paper
- Laundry Soap
- Deodorant – Unscented
- Canned Corn
- Canned Green Beans
- Jello Mix
- Pudding Mix
- $25 Gift Cards from Meijer or Kroger
Let us do our duty well; let us go straight to God; let us work to become very humble, very patient, very mortified, and very charitable.
– St. Vincent de Paul
