Week of February 26th: First Sunday of Lent
Lent is a call to “give alms for the poor.” Wherever you live in the parish, there are poor families within walking distance of your home. When in need, they ring the rectory bell. They are, in effect, ringing your doorbell.
Is there a family you know who needs assistance? Please call the Society of St.Vincent de Paul so that together we can help the suffering and poor.
*Checks made payable to Society of St. Vincent DePaul and dropped in the collection baskets will help us serve our neighbors in need throughout the Greenlawn area.
Week of February 19th: Seventh Sunday In Ordinary Time

Week of February 12th: Sixth Sunday In Ordinary Time
In the Gospel Jesus says: “Whoever fulfills and teaches these commands shall be great in the kingdom of God.”
By your gift to the Society of St. Vincent de Paul you indeed put your faith into action as you fulfill the commands of Jesus.
Week of February 5th: Fifth Sunday In Ordinary Time
