Parishioners and members of the local community in need should contact the rectory for assistance, and referral to our Outreach Program. 762-5117
“Poor Boxes” located at the 3 church entrances support the Parish Outreach program which is part of our Social Justice Ministry. The Outreach program (formerly St. Vincent de Paul) helps local members of the community who have a temporary crisis with housing or other basic needs. Outreach coordinates with Community Care Alliance which can help with additional resources. The usual amount of money that Outreach supplies is $200 and is paid directly to a landlord, utility company, etc. In the last month the Parish Outreach program helped 3 families (involving 7 young children) with housing needs. One family was about to be evicted for back rent. OUTREACH and CCA helped pay the average to keep the family in their apartment. Two other families were living temporarily in a local motel because they had lost their housing. Outreach helped pay for a couple of nights lodging. One of the families has since moved into an apartment and the mom has found work. Donations to the Outreach program through the boxes located at the church entrances or through the weekly collection help people in need in our community.
