St. Vincent de Paul Ministry of HGA "Stock the Shelves" for September to benefit local animals.

Throughout his life, St. Francis consistently demonstrated that animals are not merely creatures to be used, but companions in God’s creation, deserving protection, love, and reverence. His teachings continue to inspire animal welfare, ecological awareness, and a compassionate approach to all living beings.

Throughout the month of September leading up to the Feast of St. Francis on October 4th, the St. Vincent de Paul Ministry will collect items to benefit to benefit the Animal Rescue League, Humane Pennsylvania (Berks), and Berks Cats in Crisis.
