St. Vincent de Paul is completely out of men's clothing - warm coats, parkas, jeans, hoodies, sweatshirts, sweaters, hats and gloves (gently used), winter boots, socks and underwear (new) to get them prepared to withstand the winter season. Blankets, sleeping bags and shower curtains (gently used) to protect the homeless from the wet ground are also needed. Items can be dropped off at the SVdP Distribution Center dock, 1201 E. Maryland Street or drop them off at one of over 30 SVdP blue boxes across the city. To find a box near you click here. Please mark your bags "For the Homeless."
Looking for a way to get involved with St. Vincent de Paul? There is a need for persons to take calls from the help line. Time required is one day approximately every six weeks. This is a great opportunity for anyone who would like to serve our neighbors in need from the comfort of their own home. Anyone interested should contact Darlene Sweeney
Looking for a way to help here at Church that doesn't take a lot of time? If you answered yes to any of the three preceding questions, Altar Society might be just the thing for you! It provides the opportunity to serve God in simple but important ways according to your own time schedule. We are looking for people to be a part of the rotation to wash the altar server albs. It only requires laundry time in your home. You pick them up and return them at your convenience on an occasional basis. We also need people who are willing to spend 1 to 2 hours of flexible time a month cleaning the Church. The Altar Society is in need of at least 2 people to share the responsibilities of keeping God's house beautiful. No heavy lifting or ladders involved.
