Inspired by the spirit of St Vincent DePaul, St. John’s Bread and Life affords itself this mission: to bring food to the poor and accompany them on their journey to wholeness by providing necessary services. We advocate for them, always mindful of the words of St Vincent “to serve others as we would serve Christ”

The St. John's Bread and Life kitchen is our principle effort in helping those in need, by providing our community daily with a good solid meal, providing our guests the opportunity to start that day well.

Feeding Body, Mind and Spirit

Welcome to the Digital Food Pantry

Project Identity

In late 2008, while working at St. John’s Bread and Life Soup Kitchen in Brooklyn, NY, members of the Ozanam Scholars Program founded Project Identity to help individuals obtain proper forms of legal identification.  We are able to provide Birth Certificates, Social Security cards, Non- Driver's IDs, and Marriage and Divorce Certificates.  Project Identity is growing in the types of services it provides to its clients and it's growing everyday as a program.  Appointments can be made Monday through Thursday with a Project Identity caseworker from 9:30 to 12:30 and we even provide trips to the DMV to help our clients get their IDs.  As a community we all should be willing to come together and help Project Identity to grow and participate in, “Helping move people out of poverty and towards independence, one step at a time.”
