St. Vincent De Paul Ministry will like to GIVE THANKS

St. Vincent De Paul Ministry will like to GIVE THANKS to all of St. Agatha Parishioners for being so kind hearted by giving monetary contributions to this wonderful ministry.
 
Because of your contributions many people that have come knocking at the church have been able to pay their utility bills and part of their rent.  We were also able to buy a stove for a senior that he would have lost the Section 8 apartment without a stove in the unit and a refrigerator for a lady that was living in a shelter and found an apartment.  At that time no one had a stove or refrigerator.
 
Because of this problem I rented a space to put large items, most of the time when parishioners call with items I have no idea who needs the items, and when someone needs something we have no items available. 
 
And please if you or if you know of someone that needs items let me know.
 
I pray that you continue thinking of this ministry and that God reward you with all the blessings that he can give you. 
 
THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
 
Love and Blessings
 
Gloria M. Walker
and the members of St. Vincent De Paul

June 21, 2009 Twelfth Sunday of Ordinary Time:

In the Gospel today, Jesus calms the sea and then asks the disciples "Why are you lacking in faith." In our life's journey, we also must learn to believe in God's presence and to trust in his care.
This month, through your gifts, the Society of St. Vincent de Paul was able to continue show God's love and care to others by assisting  families, providing in food, in gifts, and for utility and rent bills.
