St. Nicholas Charity on Wheels
St. Nicolas Charity on Wheels is a ministry of Catholic Charities that serves those in need throughout the Diocese of Peoria. The individuals will be given a bag filled with toiletries and household / cleaning supplies. These items may change on a monthly basis based on need and what is donated.
The ministry also has a spiritual dimension. Individuals will always receive a religious item such as a bible, a rosary, or a holy card. We will take their prayer requests and offer masses in their regions. The ministry will also offer prayer to them at the parish in the form of praying a rosary, a chaplet, or simply praying a vocal prayer with them.
St. Nicholas Charity on Wheels is seeking requests remotely only. Please complete the form below according to your region of residence if you have a need.
