Food Pantry Donations can be dropped off outside of Haber Hall at the St. Sebastian campus.  There is a trash can labeled Food Pantry Donations and the Vincentians check the bin daily and take donations into the building.  Thank you for your continued support!

We are here for you. Our Society of St. Vincent de Paul assists those in financial need and with our food pantry.  During this challenging time of coronavirus many have been laid off and are waiting for unemployment compensation. Recent legislation should protect the unemployed from eviction or utility shut offs.  If you find yourself in need, please contact the Social Ministry Office. 
 

Catholic Social Teaching

Our Catholic Church teaching is quite clear about our obligation to care for our neighbors.  We are called to be the hands of Christ, compassionately ministering to the sick, poor, bereaved or anyone enduring one of life's many hardships.

When you are facing a difficult moment, we are here for you.
When you are able to help, we need you.

'Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these
least brothers of mine, you did for me.'
(Mt 25:40)
