Parish of Our Lady, Star of the Sea
St Vincent de Paul Society
The aim of the group is to bring social justice and the friendship of true charity to all those in need.
There is no need which is outside of our concern – be it sickness or disability, mental or physical; family problems, social or economic; loneliness in old age: the alcoholic, the drug addict, the social misfit.
​
Meetings take place once per month on the last Thursday at 7pm in St Joseph’s Parish Hall. Visits to clients are normally weekly.
For details or if you wish to volunteer, please email Jim Logan: l.james549@gmail.com

Our work is the Gospel message in action:

SVP 'Warm Welcome' Scheme
20th September 2022
We are members of the 'Warm Welcome' Scheme
The SVP are launching the Warm Welcome initiative in our Parish on 2nd Nov. We are part of a nationwide scheme: (www.warmwelcome.uk) and a borough wide scheme, operating with our local Westham group of churches to reach out especially to those living in the area around our church.
​
Please know that any parishioners who feel they would benefit from this initiative are invited to come along.
​
The SVP would welcome more members and volunteers to help us with this and other work in the parish.
We are proud to be working together with other Christian churches to reach out to those who might be struggling this winter.
