St. Vincent de Paul

St. Vincent de Paul update for September 3, 2023

“We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty.” – St. Teresa of Calcutta

The neighbors we help not only need food, bills paid, or clothing, but they need someone to talk to about their problems. They shoulder the burden of caring for themselves and their family on their own. Take time to consider those around you and what burdens they may carry and give them your time to listen to them. Please keep our pantry list in mind as you shop in stores or on-line this week.

God Bless,
