Our Call
You've felt the call to feed the hungry and clothe the naked, but it always seemed too big a job for just one person.It is.It takes a Society to tackle problems this big. That's why we have the Society of St. Vincent de Paul -- a group of friends that come together to grow spiritually and to serve the poor.
Requirements
No dues
No oaths
No secret handshakes or ceremonies
Must be Catholic
Must have a desire to help the poor
Give as much time and resources as as you are comfortable with.
Rewards
There is that warm glow from doing a good deed, but that fades with time. This is your opportunity to see the face of Christ when you get to know a neighbor in need one-on-one. It is difficult, painful, and once you start, you won't be able to stop.
