Greater Cleveland SVDP

Judge Sam Calandra of St. Rocco is the President of the Greater Cleveland SVDP having been selected by Conference presidents. Gatherings of the various SVDP regions (Lake/Geauga; West, South, and East) were held during the summer of 2009 to begin the reorganization of the District Council in Greater Cleveland.

Meetings in April 2010 will begin the process of organizing new District Councils in the greater Cleveland Area(Lake/Geauga; West Cuyahoga(including Lorain) and East Cuyahoga). These will involve only SVDP parish groups who wish to remain connected with the SVDP National and International Councils.

Here are minutes from the recent Quarterly Breakfasts:

Lent 2009-St. Rocco

September 2009-St. Vincent de Paul, Cleveland

Lent 2010-Holy Name
