PRAY FOR OUR WORK
Lord Jesus, you who willed to become poor, give us eyes and a heart directed towards the poor; help us to recognise you in them - in their hunger, their loneliness, and their misfortune. Enkindle within our Vincentian Family, unity, simplicity, humility and the fire of love that burned in St. Vincent de Paul.
Strengthen us, so that, faithful to the practice of these virtues, we may contemplate you and serve you in the person of the poor, and may one day be united with you and them in Your kingdom. Amen

WHAT IS THE SVP?
Visit and befriend older or lonely and isolated people, support the homeless, help refugees and asylum seekers, support vulnerable families and children. There is plenty of outreach work to be done here in Acocks Green. We now need parishioners to think about responding to this need and joining the SVP. Can you be generous in giving a little time to help?
DONATIONS
These can be made by posting money to the Church, handing it to a priest or donating to the St Anthony’s Box in the porch of the church which will be given to the work of our Parish SVP Conference.
SVP PARISH FOODBANK
Thank you for the support you are giving to our SVP food bank in the porch of the church. The donations are supporting some very needy families in our community.
