Thank You from St. Vincent De Paul
The Society of St. Vincent de Paul, St. Peter’s Conference, would like to thank everyone for contributing generously to our weekly collection baskets as you exit mass. The funds collected help us turn Concern into Action, and enable us to respond to calls for help from those most in need in our parish community.
Through your support and generosity, we collected almost $13,000 dollars in 2018 and that made it possible for us to help 26 families in our parish with groceries, clothing, furniture throughout the year, but also have a very special Christmas. We extend friendship and company through in-home visits to show our Parish’s caring support and provide information on additional community resources outside our community of faith.
On behalf of our team, our parish, and those people whom we’ve helped, thank you and God’s blessings and peace be with you in 2019.
P.S. We are always actively looking for new volunteer members and if you are interested in helping, you can leave your name and number at 416.534.4219 ext. 229 and one of our members will contact you
