We are so blessed to have one another.

Last night, our St. Vincent de Paul citywide meeting was held at the Ozanam Center, where Chef Kendall prepared a wonderful meal for everyone.

We were honored to recognize several faithful volunteers who have served for years at our Food Mission, sharing love, compassion, and a hot meal with our neighbors in need.

We were also blessed to have 45 people in attendance, representing our 10 local St. Vincent de Paul conferences. Thank you to everyone who continues to serve with such generous hearts. ❤️

Happy 4th of July and glory to God for 250 years to be so proud of. May we honor the past, celebrate the present, and continue striving toward a brighter future for all

Unfortunately, I didn’t get any photos of the incredible group of 15 youth and leaders of Praying Pelicans from the Indiana Living Gospel Church, but I couldn’t let their hard work go unrecognized.

They pushed through the summer heat with cheerful hearts, cleaning up our trees by removing hundreds of vigorous suckers growing from the bases, roots, and lower trunks. It was hard, dirty work, and they tackled it with energy, teamwork, and servant hearts.

Because of their efforts, our grounds look so much better, and the trees will be healthier for years to come. We are deeply grateful for the time, dedication, and love they poured into serving our ministry.

Thank you, Praying Pelicans, for being the hands and feet of Christ. Your willingness to serve made a lasting difference, even if we didn’t capture it in pictures. We won’t forget your impact!

This week was extra special with extra hands from the youth volunteer group from around the Pittsburg, PA area known as the Praying Pelicans. They were with us on Tuesday and today. Here is a pic of today’s wonderful team. Their leaders were a big help too❤️. They are doing such wonderful jobs helping other ministries this wee. Chef Kendall is in this pic in the blue t-shirt.

Today, another dedicated team from LaSalle stepped forward to volunteer at our food mission, making a difference by preparing sandwiches to complement the hot meals they helped cook, proving that small groups of committed individuals can achieve great things together, staying productive from 8 am to 11 am.

LaSalle's latest group of volunteers brought their generosity and kindness to our food mission yesterday. They carefully packed bags of food and snacks for our neighbors, which were needed after hours. Working hand-in-hand with our chef, they helped serve a wholesome meal to 190 neighbors, reinforcing the bonds of community.

This week, St. Vincent de Paul Food Mission has the privilege of hosting LaSalle College High School students from Wyndmoor, PA, as volunteers from Tuesday to Friday. The group worked tirelessly to prepare, plate, and serve meals to 220 neighbors in need, and we've captured some moments from their service today.
