St. Pius X - Shreveport, LA

The Society of St. Vincent de Paul (SSVdP) has an urgent need for volunteers to take assistance calls from the Shreveport/Bossier community.  The task involves taking calls once or twice a month, either in the morning or afternoon.  Calls are forwarded to and answered at the volunteer’s home during the shift.  Requests are then sorted by area and referred to the appropriate SSVdP Conference.  Volunteers take information from those in need, but are not expected to be counselors or to have extensive knowledge of available assistance.  The time required per shift is about 3 hours (2 hours taking calls and 1 hour referring).  If you can help with this critical ministry, please contact Maria Powell at the SVdP Office.

Also, congratulations are in order for our graduating seniors: Kendall Dykes, Jack Harville and Mai Tran.   We offer our prayers and well wishes as our young adults enter the next exciting phase of their lives.  Mai was also selected by the Knights of Columbus as the 2020 recipient of the CYLA Award (Catholic Youth Leadership Award).
