The Befrienders is a new ministry at Saint Bernards. All parishioners are invited to come to be part of this ministry. Following the training sessions, those that wish to continue with the program will comprise the membership of this ministry, whose purpose will be to serve God by serving others. For information on specific Befrienders Ministry meetings and lectures, see the Events page.

The St. Vincent de Paul Society strives to serve the needy with food, clothing, housing, caring and guidance. Our parish conference assists them in their efforts by participating in various programs such as food donations, thanksgiving food baskets and monetary donations, Bundle Sunday and Recycle the Warmth.
