St. Vincent de Paul Says Thank You
The two St Vincent de Paul Conferences in the Parish – St Comgall’s and Most Holy Redeemer, Ballyholme would like to extend our heartfelt thanks for your incredibly generous donations to our Christmas Appeal and to all our collections throughout the year.
The donations to the two Conferences jointly over the period of the Appeal came to £18,109.
In addition, we received enormously generous donations of cash and food from 4 schools – St Comgall’s Primary School, St Malachy’s Primary School, St Columbanus’ College and Our Lady and St Patrick’s College – amounting to a total of £6,369. Thanks to your support the two Conferences were able to provide 224 families with vouchers for food, gas electricity and toys at Christmas.
A significant legacy left to us by a deceased parishioner two years ago has been shared between the two Conferences and allows us to continue our work of supporting many families in need in the Bangor area in accordance with the wishes of the donor.
Please accept our sincere appreciation for your ongoing support and prayers and be assured that your kindness and generosity is making a real difference to the lives of many.
