We thank you for your continued financial support of
St. William Parish - always, but particularly during this difficult time for us all. If you are able, please mail or drop off (mail slot to left of doors) your envelopes at the Rectory, or for more ease - use Electronic Giving that is linked below.
Non perishables are collected for
St. Helena's Cupboard every month on the 3rd Sunday.
Next Collection Date:

IMPORTANT - Pease Read
Below is a list regarding what is and isn't acceptable for the monthly food drive for
St. Helena's Food Cupboard:
"YES" Items...
+ All canned goods

We are always greatful for your compassion and generosity for those in need but unfortunately over the last few months we have seen a significant increase in
drop off's of items that need refrigeration or freezing and we simply
do not have those capabilities.
We have also been the recipient of items well past their expiration dates - please treat the less fortunate as you would yourself or your family - If it's not safe for you, it's not safe for anyone else.
(**) If you wish to prepare meals for Aid For Friends, please CALL the rectory
215-745-1389 to make those arrangements
Thank you and God Bless!

Once released, videos can be watched any time.
The Arise: Resurrection and Restoration Easter video series breaks open the mystery of the Resurrection of Jesus and his power to bring us new life in the midst of the pandemic. It is also designed to help us transition back into “in person” life in the Church as the COVID19 restrictions slowly lift. These short videos, given by dynamic local speakers, will offer a teaching on the resurrection of Jesus Christ, its power to restore our lives here and now, and why the “in person” nature of our life as Catholics is so important.
Opioid addiction has reached epidemic proportions and rates are especially high in the state of Pennsylvania. Addiction, no matter what form it takes, is causing much suffering in the lives of many of our Archdiocesan families and they are looking to the Church for hope and help. There is a new webpage 'Hope in Christ: Spiritual Support for Addiction' that can be found on the link below. Here you will find spiritual support, events, and resources for families struggling with addiction. http://archphila.org/hope
St. William Parish also hosts Alcoholics Anonymous - information can be found here.
