St. Vincent de Paul Parish

Catholic Charities—Diocese of Paterson Annual Food Collection for the Poor Due to the unprecedented requests for assistance from Catholic Charities’ food pantries and in order to fulfill our obligations to the poor, Bishop Serratelli has authorized a Diocesanwide food collection in all parishes and agencies this weekend the Solemnity of Corpus Christi. Our parish has been asked to provide canned fruit, paper towels, cold cereal, juice (bottles or cans) and coffee. Cash and check donations will also be accepted. Checks should be made payable to Catholic Charities. The food collection days are June 22nd and 23rd. Bring your donation to the Food Pantry basket in the church vestibule. Thank you in advance for your care and concern for the poorest among us.

All are welcome here. The Gospel reminds us that the Lord came to seek sinners and to save them. If you are looking for the perfect church community we are not it. If you recognize that all fall short of grace and are willing to be compassionate, patient, forgiving, to love as Christ commands then we will try to do the same with and for you. Whatever your present status in the Catholic Church, whatever your current situation, whatever your past or present religious affiliation, whatever your personal history, age, background, race or color, whatever your self-esteem, you are invited, welcomed, accepted, loved, respected and challenged at St. Vincent de Paul parish to live as an authentic witness to Jesus Christ.

We have active youth programs, adult formation sessions, along with wonderful opportunities to serve the poor in our midst and further afield. We strive to live the life poured out on us in Baptism and are focused on the Presence of Christ, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity in the precious gift of the Eucharist. Connected to Christ in this way we seek Him who has called us to be a holy people, a priestly people, a people set apart for the greater glory of God. All are welcome.

Fr. Richard
