With great humility and gratitude we give thanks to Almighty God for the most kind and generous parishioners of St. Vincent de Paul during the recent baby bottle drive to benefit Women in crisis pregnancies at Good Counsel Homes. More than $6,000 was raised for their benefit which far exceeded any expectation. We are a small parish, but great in generosity and care of those in need. May you be rewarded for your great kindness and act of almsgiving.

World Day of Prayer and Reflection Against Human Trafficking

Dear Friends, Our patron, the great Saint Vincent de Paul, preached the importance of “personal service” to the poor. You follow that practice. This Christmas Season your generosity was admirable. The Food Drive, Coats and Sweaters, and the Giving Tree, brought joy to families in Paterson, Elizabeth, Newark, and other locations. Generosity is a way of life. The strategy of focusing on the specific needs of specific people enables us to understand the “second greatest commandment” to love our neighbors as ourselves. You a loving people! Thank you so much for your energetic commitment to personally serve the poor. With great appreciation, Father Hernan
