Looking to give back to the community? The St. Vincent de Paul Society follows the example of our patron, St. Vincent de Paul. The Society is a faith based community service group looking to build one on one relationships with the people we serve, grow in spirituality, and learn and put into practice Vincentian values. Vincent encouraged others to see the face of Christ in the faces of those we serve. Come to do service with the Society and see the face of Christ in places you may have not thought of.

Wednesdays- Come to LaBoure House,an intergenerational home where low income seniors live in community with college students. You will talk, play games of pool, clue, checkers, connect four and more. Most importantly, you will build one on one relationships with the seniors at LaBoure House. LaBoure House is small and warm place that is different than traditional elderly homes. The Society visits every Wednesday evening 5:00pm - 8:00pm.

Thursdays- Pay a visit to St. Paul's and spend some time with the elderly. St. Paul's is a traditional elderly home filled with a lot of activities and excited seniors. The place is well taken care of and there are plenty of nights filled with singing, card games, miniature golf, and more. Warning, you may have laughing fits at St. Paul's. The Society visits every Thursday evening 5:00pm - 8:00pm.
