Ministry    Christianity is not for spectators. Christianity is compassion in action. You too can help! Our members are volunteers, not paid employees.
Our members currently help those in need in our communities in many ways, including: Members manage and volunteer in our thrift stores. Vincentians run food pantries take food to those in need, parishioners and non-parishioners. We provide emergency financial assistance to help with concerns such as rent, electric & gas bills, etc. Some of us do jail ministry. We visit the sick and elderly. We operate and distribute food from pantries.
We also need donations to assist clients with emergency needs. *** ***
