It's Not Too Late to Give!

At Catholic Charities, we seek to clothe the naked, feed the hungry, and serve the poor. But more than that, our mission is to go beyond people’s physical needs and treat their emotional, spiritual, and personal needs as well.

Our small gestures of compassion provide an immeasurable service to our clients. We listen to them speak, comfort them when they are sad, and welcome them into our agencies and centers. We provide more than services; we provide hope. As the Christmas season approaches, we reflect on Jesus’ call to love one another.

As Christmas approaches, so does the season of snow and ice and freezing rain on city streets. Of course, for many of us this can cause hassles with traffic, car accidents, and power outages. But for others in St. Louis, winter can be a debilitating time. For the poor, the homeless, and the elderly, winter can bring great distress.

At Catholic Charities, we recognize the importance of having a place to call ‘home,’ a place where you can feel safe and comfortable. At three locations in St. Louis, Catholic Charities agencies are reaching out to provide safe and stable housing for many people with few places to turn.
