The St. Vincent de Paul Society of St. Peter Church is a group composed of all types of people, young and old, English- and Spanish-speaking, who desire to love Christ in the poor. Inspired by the life and spirituality of St. Vincent de Paul, the members, or Vincentians, extend care to the less fortunate who live in our parish boundaries.

Our parish St. Vincent de Paul Society oversees many charitable efforts, including but not limited to participation in neighborhood community meals for the hungry and homeless in the area, weekly assistance with utilities and material needs, hosting food and coat drives, providing the annual Thanksgiving Day Meal for those in need and missing family, managing the Angel Tree that provides gifts to the poor and aged at Christmas time, and stocking the St. Peter food pantry, and partnering with the Least of My Brethren and Bridges Out of Poverty organizations.

The St. Vincent de Paul Society applications and the pantry are on Saturdays from 1:30 pm to 2:30 pm in the St. Peter Parish Hall.

For financial assistance, applicants must live near St. Peter Church (mostly 68105 zip code). Anyone, however, may receive a food pantry bag regardless of where they live once every 30 days. If an applicant does not live in the St. Peter Church area and needs financial assistance, please call 402-346-5445 to find out where the nearest St. Vincent de Paul is located.

St. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry at 21st and Leavenworth operates on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:00 am to 12:30 pm. The Society will also be returning phone calls to our hotline and responding to emails (see contact information below).

The St. Vincent de Paul Society of St. Peter Catholic Church partners with Least of My Brethren to provide breakfast on the 4th Saturday of every month from 8:00 - 9:30 am on the St. Peter Campus.

"Charity is certainly greater than any rule. Moreover, all rules must lead to charity. Since she is a noble mistress, we must do whatever she commands. With renewed devotion, then, we must serve the poor, especially outcasts and beggars. They have been given to us as our masters and patrons"
