Our Lady of Grace Conference

Meeting of Thursday 18/12/2014

Since our last meeting our Vincentians have undertaken a total of 65 visits to people in the local community providing companionship, helping with shopping, supplying clothing for those in need and providing Christmas parcels and grants.

A collection for the SVP was held at masses at Our Lady of Grace on 06/12/2014 and 07/12/2014.  It raised a total of £515.87.   Everyone is thanked for their generosity, which meant that a lot of families could receive Christmas grants.

You are asked to remember in your prayers the families of those whose children were killed at the school massacre in Pakistan.  Give them courage Lord and help them in their pain and grief.  May they all meet one day in the joy and peace of your kingdom. We also pray that with your help those who take the lives of innocent children may learn the value of family life.
