Sept. 27 Cycle of Hope

A "mission" to help those in need; donations will support the essential and life-saving services of the St. Vincent DePaul Mission.

In remembrance of the life and work of Saint Vincent de Paul, recognized worldwide as the patron saint of charitable societies, on September 27th, the two will cycle 100 miles from The Basilica of the Immaculate Conception in Waterbury, CT to the church of St. Vincent de Paul in Albany, NY. We will arrive to celebrate the feast day of St. Vincent de Paul as we strive to carry on his devotion in the service of those most in need in our community experiencing poverty, hunger, and homelessness.
