Mobile Loaves & Fishes

Mobile Loaves & Fishes began in Austin, Texas, as a ministry of St. John Neumann Catholic Church and is currently serving Austin. St. Vincent de Paul is proud to serve out of the the Saint Thomas More Mobile Loaves & Fishes ministry which operates out of the Fisher house (just behind the Religious Education building on the STM campus).
 
The Fisher garage and a large side room have been converted into a commissary complete with the required shelving, lighting, food preparation and truck-staging facilities.
 
There are several ways for parishioners to participate in Mobile Loaves & Fishes:

• as a volunteer on a Make Ready Team (make sandwiches, load truck with food, groceries & clothes)
• as a volunteer on a Truck Team (distribute food, groceries and clothing to the two apartments, empty & clean out truck)
• by donating time to help in support activities such as making hard boiled eggs, and making cookies
• by donating non-perishable food to the STM pantry
• by donating money
• by prayer support
