St. Vincent de Paul

St. Vincent de Paul update for September 10, 2023

A network of friends, inspired by Gospel values, growing in holiness and building a more just world through personal relationships with and in service to people in need.

It is the gift and what it becomes for all neighbors in need. Perhaps the gift is your time, a food donation, gift card, or another generous offering. How does your gift transform lives? Your gift helps alleviate suffering or deprivation in the lives of people in need. The gift promotes human dignity and personal integrity in all their dimensions.

Please keep the food pantry in mind as you shop in stores or online this week.
