SVdP Thank You party
Pictured above: It was a Feast! And anyone who was lucky enough to bid on this meal at the SVdP Thank You party was in store for an awesome evening. Thanks to Bill and Liz Quade, (a couple who put their heart and soul into their work for St. Vincent DePaul) ten dinner guests were welcomed to their home for an outstanding dinner.

Past retired deacons are also invited to attend as was the case with Deacon Marty and his wife Barb who celebrated his 75th some four years ago. The retirement status eliminates some annual continuing education hours, but the life of the deacon within their parishes continues to go on and on and on and on…..
