“If you want God to hear your prayers, hear the voice of the poor. If you wish God to anticipate your wants, provide those of the needy without waiting for them to ask you.” – St. Thomas of Villanova
We are thankful for the proactive generosity of our parishioners. You show that you have a deep understanding of the needs of SVDP and the people we serve. We are delighted our parishioners feel that connection. Our neighbors in need also feel a deep relationship. One family in need says it so well, “The Christmas Distribution brought us to tears. We never expected so much!” Your efforts and encouragement help change lives of the less fortunate. It is inspiring to witness, and others may also reach out to assist. If you are able to, please continue to support SVDP.
Please keep our blue donation envelopes and pantry in mind this week.
Our needs are:
- Cash Donations – Blue Envelopes at Church entrances
- $25 Gift Cards – Walmart, Meijer, Kroger

Each day is an opportunity to respond to our faith and to the voices of the poor.
