St. Vincent de Paul

  St. Vincent de Paul Society

Inspired by Gospel values, the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, a Catholic lay organization, leads women and men to join together to grow spiritually by offering person-to-person service to the needy and suffering in the tradition of its founder, Blessed Frederick Ozanam, and its patron, St. Vincent de Paul.

The St. Vincent de Paul Society at St. Agnes was organized in 1957 to help provide comfort to individuals and families in the Butler and surrounding area.

With compassion and discretion, St. Vincent de Paul members offer immediate help to people in need. On a person-to-person basis, Society members from St. Agnes help the needy with emergency assistance for:

  • food
  • clothing
  • furniture and household items
  • housing
  • utilities
  • information and direction about governmental agencies that can also assist

While the services we provide are important, what stands alone is our outreach of friendship through person-to-person contact.  During a crisis, many simply need to know that someone cares.  We care.

If you are in need, please contact us at (414) 339-2044.

The St. Vincent de Paul Society at St. Agnes was organized on February 8, 1956, to help provide comfort to individuals and families. We serve the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of the community.

With compassion and discretion, St. Vincent de Paul members offer immediate help to people in need. We provide food, clothing, furniture, appliances, transportation; help with budgeting, rent, utility and medical payments; offer counseling; give information and direction about governmental agencies; and visit the sick in homes, hospitals and nursing homes.

In addition, we coordinate the SHARE food program, where food is provided for a nominal fee and two hours of community service. We also help with the Waukesha Surplus Commodities Program and staff the AGAPE Food Program.

Vincentians provide additional help with clothing, furniture, and appliances for the needy at St. Michael and St. Thomas Parishes, but the needy at St. Agnes come first.
