In January of 1968 the <strong>St</strong>. Vincent de Paul Society was organized at <strong>St</strong>. Michael’s Parish. This year we are celebrating 45 years of service<br />
to the needy in our community. The members distributed beds, mattresses, tables, chairs, chesterfields, stoves, a large quantity<br />
of clothing and many other items. The Society supports two families with the Save A Family Plan in India. At Christmas 61 families<br />
received a Christmas hamper consisting of food and gifts.<br />
Unfortunately, this year we had to make the decision to close our clothing store in the basement of the church. The location in the<br />
basement because of the dampness is not suitable for the storing of clothing. If anyone knows of a suitable location please contact<br />
any member of our Society.<br />
At this time the members of <strong>St</strong>. Vincent de Paul Society would like to extend our sincere thanks and appreciation to the parishioners<br />
of <strong>St</strong>. Michael’s for their kind support and generosity.<br />
Edward Dignam, President.

are asking parishioners to collect their pennies and<br />
