St.Vincent de Paul Conference

Becoming A Vincentian

Members of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul (or "Vincentians”) are men and women who strive to grow spiritually by offering person-to-person service to individuals in need. In this essential way, the Society differs from charitable associations or agencies whose principal objective is not the spiritual advancement of their members but the doing of good for someone else.

As a reflection of the whole family of God, members are drawn from every ethnic and cultural background, age group, and economic level. Vincentians are united in an international society of charity by their spirit of poverty, humility and sharing, which is nourished by prayer and reflection, mutually supportive gatherings and adherence to a basic Rule. Energized by the awareness that service to our brother or sister in need is in fact an encounter with our Lord Jesus Christ, members of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul are keenly aware that poverty, suffering and loneliness are present for millions in our communities. For that reason, we collaborate with all who seek to relieve need and address its causes.

Our Conference meets every 1st and 3rd Saturday of the month at 9:00 AM in St. Francis Hall. Prior to our meetings, members are encouraged to attend the 8:00 AM mass.
