Society of St. Vincent de Paul Give for Good Fundraiser

The MQP Society of St. Vincent de Paul is conducting their once a year fundraiser. We are funded solely by your donations through the Poor Box and this one fundraiser a year. In the past year, we assisted 40 families in our area with over $10,000 in assistance by helping with rent, utility bills, food, etc. 

You may donate online with credit card, https://www.giveforgoodnla.org/fundraisers/maryqueenofpeace2021 from April 20-May 4^th.  You may also mail a check to the church office or drop cash or check in the Poor Box located at the back of the church and at each side exit. Please make checks out to MQP-SSVDP.  Your donation may prevent a possible eviction, utility disconnection, or provide food to a hungry individual or family. We appreciate any help you can give us.

Need for Volunteers!

The Society of St. Vincent de Paul (SSVdP) has an urgent need for volunteers to take assistance calls from the Shreveport/Bossier community.  The task involves taking calls once or twice a month, either in the morning or afternoon.  Calls are forwarded to and answered at the volunteer’s home during the shift.  Requests are then sorted by area and referred to the appropriate SSVdP Conference.  The time required per shift is about 3 hours (2 hours taking calls and 1 hour referring to appropriate SVDP conference).  If you can help with this critical ministry, please call the church office (318) 752-5971.
