June 26, 2014Athens Catholic Teens (ACT) will be traveling to the mountains of Eastern Kentucky to work with a missionary priest for the 5th year in a row from July 16-20. We need your help to make this year a success. Please consider donating school supplies (for the students at the Mission school), New socks & kids/adult T-shirts (for the students at the Mission school), Gift cards to Wal-Mart or Lowe's (for food & supplies during our stay), gas cards (to help defray the cost of travel), and/or cases of water. The teens and our volunteers do everything from painting and building wheelchair ramps to cleaning and refurbishing structures around the town. Please drop off donations in the boxes marked in the vestibule at St. Paul or in the gathering space at Christ the King. Please contact Mary Catherine ([email protected]) at the Parish Office for more information. Thank you for your continued support of ACT!Read More

June 16, 2014We need folks to deliver food to needy families in the area. The number of families in need of food has grown, so the need for more delivery people is more important than ever. During the month of February 2014, for example, VDP volunteers delivered food to 1,018 people in Athens County, a staggering number of people needing something as simple as food for their families! There are several delivery days available for anyone interested in volunteering. Training is easy, and the commitment usually is for once a month, every month, throughout the year. Please consider joining the St. Vincent de Paul Society in their mission to help the needy. Contact Kathy Baca for more information at 740-590-9965 or [email protected]Read More -
