The newly appointed Mini Vinnies at St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School in Stanley received a special blessing from Father Shaun, as they begin to put their faith into action in the local community.

The Mini Vinnies also met with the SVP parishioners, and they began to put plans in place for future events to support those most in need in the local area.

Harry, a Year 6 Mini Vinnie, said, “Children at St Joseph’s love to help out in the local community. We know it is important to follow in the footsteps of Jesus.”
