ST. VINCENT DE PAUL

St. Vincent de Paul

  The Society is molded after the life and principles of its founder Blessed Frederic Ozanam. Following his example, St. Henry/St. Vincent de Paul gives temporary assistance to those in need of help, regardless of race, religion, or circumstance. Our St. Vincent de Paul Society is the charitable arm of our Church. Members spend time visiting with our parishioners in area nursing homes.


    Individuals experiencing temporary difficulties may call our Voice Mail at 463-2411 for direct personal and confidential aid. Food vouchers are provided to those less fortunate during the holidays. 


    We are most grateful for the generous donations we receive from so many of our parishioners and from our Parish Organizations, which makes our work among the poor possible. 


    We are members of the Interfaith Community Food Pantry.  St Vincent de Paul meetings are held on the first Monday of the month at 9 am in the Parish Center. There are no dues. 



    If you would like to learn more about assisting those in need please call Bobbie Peduzzi 397-5641. We look forward to your participation.
