Homeless Relief Ministry (HRM) Imagine you have a family, but little or no income to feed or house them. In addition to living in poverty, what if you have disabilities, mental health or substance abuse conditions?  Anything we do in our community to help alleviate homelessness is a life changer for these families.

The Homeless Relief Ministry is a combined ministry of the parishes of St. Matthew, St. Peter, and St. Vincent de Paul Churches which assists Supportive Housing Communities in furnishing apartments for men, women, and families moving out of homelessness.
