Welcome
Mission Statement
"The Society of St Vincent de Paul is an international Catholic lay organization inspired by the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Vincentians work to promote human dignity and justice through personal contact with those in need"
Principles and Tradition
The Society of St Vincent de Paul is an international fraternal organization of lay people who practice Christianity by helping those in need, on a person-to-person basis.
Catholic in character it is open to all who wish to live their faith by loving their neighbors in the persons of the needy.
It is our mission to make our Centers of Charity a working model of a Vincentian family; bringing together those in need, those who assist them and those who donate goods and ensuring that through the love and friendship offered, our centers reflect the spirit and image of the Society of St Vincent de Paul.
I ask that you take a moment to look around at each other and see if you can tell who is in need, let me assure you there are several people within this community who are in desperate need of your support. It is not always the need for material things, it is also the need for spiritual guidance and a listening ear.
Within our conferences we gather regularly to pray, be spiritually renewed and discuss our activities. This is an important part of the society as we work in an environment today where the safety and privacy of those who help and those being helped need to be balanced.
