St Gertrude’s St Vincent de Paul Society wishes to thank the wonderful parishioners and friends for their generous support of money and non-perishable items. The donation baskets are still located in the rear of the church for those who wish to donate. We offer special thanks to our Bingo Committee and Bingo players who donate items to the food pantry weekly. As always our people are willing to extend a hand to our brothers and sisters in need. We provide assistance to anyone needing help, no matter what religion, race or background. Whether you live in St. Charles or Lafourche, you are part of our family when in need. We continue to provide assistance to our community in need. We generally help with food baskets for people in need monthly, Food for Seniors (currently providing between 20-30 food boxes monthly), holiday food baskets, and general assistance as needed. We are always looking for additional members. It doesn’t require a great deal from any one person. Please consider joining this group of hard working parishioners. Our meeting are posted in the bulletin.
