LOVE IN OUR WORKS - BULLETIN MARCH 17, 2024

As you place your gift in the St. Vincent de Paul Poor Box, know that you are a sign of God’s love to those who are suffering, and you give them Easter hope and joy.

Please call the food pantry line directly at 708-289-0406 to enroll. You will need to provide ID and proof of residency in Our Lady of the Ridge - St. Linus parish boundaries. Pantry is on the second Saturday every month. For financial assistance call 708-289-4180.

Are you looking for ways to experience God? Members of the St. Vincent de Paul Society invite you to share in their ministry. Volunteering with St. Vincent de Paul is a wonderful way to serve God through people in need, and when we see Christ in our friends in need we experience His grace. Please contact Patti Meslar at Meslar5@att.net if interested.

JOIN THE SAINT VINCENT DE PAUL SOCIETY

Our Lady of the Ridge - St. Linus St. Vincent de Paul Society is always in need of people to deepen their Vincentian spirit of friendship, and to be responsive to the Christian calling to help those in need. If you would be willing to share some of your time and talents in this work of charity, please join us! Our St. Vincent de Paul Conference meets the first Monday of the month in the St. Linus Cardiff Center at 7 pm.

We reach out to all parishioners young and old to consider helping our St. Vincent de Paul Conference in our many activities. Please send us an email at Meslar5@att.net or contact the Parish Reectory Office at 708-422-2400 if you are interested in becoming a member of our Conference or interested in helping at our Food Pantry. I can honestly say if you spend an hour or two with us, we guarantee you won’t regret it. Stop by for a visit and see our volunteers at work at our Food Pantry, second Saturday of the month between 7 am and 10 am at Our Lady of the Ridge Gym.

Sincerely,
