Holy Redeemer Catholic Church reminds us that every Christian is called to serve and  should actively accept the responsibility of their baptism.

It is the purpose of the Christian Service Commission to promote and coordinate programs that will guarantee all God’s children in the worldwide community, in the local community, and especially within the parish boundaries, justice and charity in full measure. It has the responsibility of enabling members of the parish to respond to the social justice problems of today. It also concerns itself with the physical, mental, and emotional needs of the people of the parish, giving special care to the poor, the lonely, the aged, the oppressed, and minority groups.

This charitable arm of the parish provides “near emergency” assistance to persons within the parish boundaries or throughout the community in the homes of those in need.  At Holy Redeemer, funds are raised primarily through the collection basket.

There are multiple ways to volunteer and participate. 

 If you are interested in helping SVDP, our meetings are usually held on the 2nd & 4th Sundays of the month at 10:00am in the Rectory Meeting Room.  All are welcome! To request assistance, contact us at 314-289-6101 ext. 2250
