Society of St. Vincent de Paul

The Divine Mercy Society of St. Vincent de Paul ministry assists people in crisis and those who need a temporary helping hand.  Utilities, gasoline, prescriptions, rent supplement are some of the assistance items we provide.  Your donations of non-perishable food and money are channeled to the needy families of Merritt Island.  In addition, our parishioners are assisted wherever they live, so if you know of anyone who needs help, call us at 459-2060, or the parish office at 452-5955.

Members pack Christmas baskets.

 

Need knows no season for the poor.

Medicines are required. Power bills must be paid. Your generous donations help provide the necessities of life to those who have little. We are grateful for your support!

If you would like to join our Society, please call June Patrylow at 799-1892 for details.

The work of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul is the Gospel Mission in action.

Our Food Program

 


We thank our parishioners who donate canned food daily to our Society. We purchase, pack, and deliver non-perishable food in bags to our neighbors in need. We give supermarket vouchers for perishable items.

Current Activities and Programs

We visit the residents in the Merritt Island Nursing Home every Sunday.

We conduct four Fund/Membership drives during the year. Our parishioners' generosity assists us with food and funding to continue our mission.

We delivered Thanksgiving turkey dinners and Christmas ham baskets to our families in need.

The Divine Mercy School has adopted us as one of their community activity programs. We appreciate their involvement in our mission.
