MISSION OF THE MONTH: St. Vincent DePaul Conference
St. Paul the Apostle Catholic Church
Their motto is “A hand UP, not a hand out.”
When a family asks for help, an appointment is set up to complete an intake form. If possible the family is helped one time for the year unless there are circumstances such as an illness or loss of employment then it may be more. Contacts of services are made aware and food may be provided through the DeKalb County Community Gardens and Our Sharing Pantry. In addition, payments may be for rent, utilities, car payments and insurance. No money is ever given to the family but paid directly to the contractor.
Thank you, The Missions Committee
