St. Faustina Conference of St. Vincent de Paul is so grateful for the overwhelming support from our parishioners to help us provide meals for our families in need. With your help we have had an abundance of the types of food served on the Thanksgiving and Christmas tables that we all enjoy. We are now in need of the staples to help prevent hunger in the winter months ahead. Here are some suggestions: Cereals and instant oatmeal, Macaroni and cheese, ramen noodles, Canned tuna, chicken, salmon, Spam, Hearty soups and crackers, canned chili and beef stew, Pasta sauce and noodles, Peanut butter and jelly. Toilet paper and paper towels are always appreciated. Merry Christmas to all of our wonderful St. Faustina Family!

To enhance the safety and security of our St. Faustina parishioners and guests, will we now be locking the entry doors five minutes after Mass begins. Please strive to be on time.

Seniors are invited to attend the monthly Senior Club meeting in the Family Center. The meeting takes place on the 4th Wednesday of every month in the afternoon. We offer lunch at every meeting along with a variety of activities, such as games, socializing, 50/50 raffle, guest speakers, exercises, etc. There are monthly membership dues of $5.00. Money is used for the purpose of the Club only. Come and join us for a few hours and bring a friend and meet new ones.

In May we began the annual CSA Collection that will last for several months. Our generous parishioners are supporting all kinds of projects including helping poor people, St. Vincent de Paul, Knights of Columbus, Giving Tree, etc. It is time to consider the Church as poor and support the Church with our Archbishop Weisenburger and I hope with Pope Leo XIV, our new Pope, will grow strong and continue to evangelize, educate and provide people with the experience of God in their lives. Please look into your mail and consider a generous contribution to CSA. If you did not get a letter, contact the Parish Office and we will help you make your donation. Our goal this year is $41,782.00.
