St. Vincent De Paul

admin — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 06:43:41 +0000

In a spirit of justice, charity and personal involvement, this ministry seeks to provide aid and comfort to the poor, the afflicted and the lonely. Members of the Society make personal home visits; provide advocacy and support usually in the form of food vouchers, financial assistance, clothing and furniture. (Training provided.)

Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread When we pray the Our Father, we ask God to provide our food and necessities. The majority of us receive sufficient food. Others do not. We can be our Father’s instrument by providing “bread” for the needy, particularly during this cold, snowy and difficult winter. You do this by your contributions to the St. Vincent de Paul Society

Thanks to all who contributed to our St. Boniface St. Vincent de Paul Conference over the past year. We were able to help many of our neighbors. Some people had no money for food, others no beds – they were sleeping on the floor – or there was no heat or electricity!
