We are called to love one another" and we are looking for a few Good new Members to help us in that effort. The Society of St. Vincent de Paul is looking for new members. What do we do? We make home visits to those in need with paying utility bills, rent payments. food needs, etc. We also help with referrals to other agencies. In addition to home visits we coordinate the Giving Tree, Back to School programs, Blanket Sunday and volunteer at the Fr. Hilkert Ozanam Center. If you can give a few hours a month to make a difference in the lives of many, please contact Debbie for more information at [email protected].
