MONTHLY FOOD DRIVE
The last weekend of the month. Please donate only non-perishable food items. Food can also be left at the St. Vincent de Paul offices Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Clothing donations should be given to Katy Christian Ministries, since we have no place to store them.
There are also "FOOD FOR THE POOR" baskets in the Church Narthex for your donations.
Inspired by Gospel values, the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, a Catholic lay organization, leads women and men to join together to grow spiritually by offering person-to-person service to the needy and suffering in the tradition of its founder, Frederic Ozanam, and patron St. Vincent de Paul.
As a reflection of the whole family of God, members are drawn from every ethnic and cultural background, age group and economic level. They are united in an international society of charity by their spirit of poverty, humility and sharing, which is nourished by prayer and reflection, mutually supportive gatherings and adherence to a basic rule.
Organized locally, members witness God's love by embracing all works of charity and justice. The Society collaborates with other people of good will in relieving need and addressing its causes, because in them, members see the face of Christ.
WHAT DO WE DO?
We provide emergency assistance for those in need as follows:
St. Vincent de Paul supports Katy community services such as Christ Clinic, City of Katy Senior Services and Katy Christian Ministries.
St. Bartholomew's St. Vincent de Paul supports the Society's services Archdiocese-wide, nationally and even internationally.
