We would like to form a St. Vincent de Paul society for our parish.  Its main purpose is to help the poor.   The diocesan level of the St. Vincent de Paul has said if we have some interested members in our parish they will send a small team to inform us about the structure, works and spirituality of this society.  If you are interested in this pastoral effort to help the poor, please tell Fr. Bill and we will take it from there.  At this point we are only asking a commitment to find out about this  society.  After that we will want to find out who is interested in going further.  Please pray about whether or not God is calling you to be part of this service of the poor.
