Helping Others

St Michael's St Vincent De Paul Group (SVP)

St Michael’s St Vincent De Paul Group
have put together 110 hampers for families
in need this Christmas.

 Supporting work amongst orphaned children and poor villagers in a small area west of Madurai in India's southernmost state of Tamil Nadu. Bro James writes “I sleep on my cot and know they would be all sleeping on the mud floor of their hovel. I could switch on several lights and knew they had no electricity. I could turn on a tap and have a bath from a bucket of water in my small bathroom-cum-toilet and knew they had maybe a single pot of water for everything, and no toilet, in an utterly worthless hut which will not last one year. Within the next 6 months we will build at least 50 of our solid little houses. My gratitude to all who help us in any way in all this vitally important work is beyond words. God bless you all.”

If you wish to pledge a regular amount or have any further questions please contact our RTU co-ordinator, via the Parish Office.

Thank you to the kind parishioner who advised me of the following: Everyclick.com is a new category of search engine that allows you to search the internet just as efficiently as any other; the big difference is that every click you make benefits a charity of your choosing, at no extra cost to you. You can enter RTU as your charity and every little helps!
