All Christians are called to serve the poor and to share the blessings God has given them. At St. Victor’s, we feed the poor every day, take special collections of food and clothing on the Last Sunday of Advent, the Last Sunday of Lent and the Sunday before Thanksgiving Day. We also have a conference of the St. Vincent de Paul Society, which serves the needs of people in distress who call upon the parish for relief.
About the St. Vincent de Paul Society at St. Victor Church:
The fundamental effort of any St. Vincent de Paul Society is to provide assistance to the poor usually in the area of the parish involved. Saint Victor is somewhat unique in its endeavors to aid the poor and needy because our outreach includes many requesting persons who do not reside in the parish area. All applicants who solicit aid are considered on an equal basis.
Requests for financial assistance and intervention are received by the Parish Office. All requests are considered and a prompt response is given to the persons making the request. The majority of this assistance includes aid with utility, medical and rental concerns.
Contact the parish office for assistance (310) 652-6477
