St. Vincent de Paul

In the Gospel today we see how Jesus sent his Apostles out two by two. From the beginning of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, members visit in pairs “two by two”, those who are poor and needy in their homes. It is there, in the family setting, that Vincentians listen, offer humble advice, and render assistance.

Have you considered answering the call to help serve the poor by joining the Society of St. Vincent de Paul?

St. Louis Cemetery East Slope Project 

The Saint Louis Cemetery East Slope Project has obtained the military records of those buried in this section (where few markers exist), that may potentially be veterans and thus eligible for military markers. We have uploaded around 5,000 pages of handwritten documents to a crowdsourcing website which allows volunteers to help transcribe the documents. If you are interested in learning how to participate, there will be a session July 22 from 10:00 to 11:30 at the Catholic Enrichment Center 146 West Broadway. Let Jo Ann Orr know you wish to attend at orrja@yahoo.com. Interested in contributing to this project, but can’t make the training? Email Linda at lctfitz@gmail.com. It is a great project for those who may not be very mobile but wish to participate in an interesting project. Computer and internet access is necessary, but "hunt and peck" typing is OK!
