*************************************************************************
Mission To serve the material and spiritual needs of the poor, in the spirit of St. Vincent de Paul and Blessed Frederick Ozanam, founder of the society.
Ministry Description Our members meet bi-weekly (Thursdays at 6:30 PM). We sponsor an annual food drive and a clothing drive twice per year.
We maintain a food pantry at the ministry center for assistance, on a confidential basis, to those in need. Each Sunday we visit patients at Kaleida (Millard Fillmore Suburban Hospital). We also visit residents at the Bassett Manor Assisted Care Facility, and on occasion, make confidential visits to families in need within the parish, to provide food or short-term financial assistance.
We are always interested in exploring new opportunities for service.
