The St. Vincent de Paul conference is hoping to expand their pool of volunteers. If you would like to make a difference in the lives of our neighbors in need please join us for “Celebrating Vincentian Life,“ sponsored by the Detroit East District Council of SVdP on Saturday, October 14 here at St. Clare. This special event begins with the 4 o’clock Mass during which Bill Rigg and all deceased Vincentians who have served in Detroit East will be remembered. In addition to St. Clare, our district includes St. Ambrose, St. Matthew, Star of the Sea, St. Paul on the Lake, St. Raymond and Queen of Heaven/Good Shepherd. Following Mass, there will be a casual supper in the social hall. This is an opportunity to enjoy the fellowship and community that SVdP offers as well as a chance to learn more about the work and services this ministry provides. Come, and bring a friend. All are welcome. Please contact Diane McCloskey at: [email protected] or Barb Koster at [email protected] for more information or to RSVP.
