Our Poor Boxes are located at both of the main entrances into the Church. These boxes are made available for the collection of cash donations that are distributed by our
St. Vincent de Paul Society to individuals in the Norman and Noble area in need of immediate assistance. Every dime of money donated into the Poor Boxes goes to these individuals to help keep the lights on, the rent paid, and, especially during these summer months, to keep the cool air blowing. The St. Vincent de Paul Society is grateful for every gift placed into the Poor Boxes, and no gift is too small.
"Then the king will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father. Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me, naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me.' Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? When did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? When did we see you ill or in prison, and visit you?' And the king will say to them in reply, 'Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.'"
Matthew 25:34-40
