Serve Christ in Your Community
Inspired by Gospel values, the Society of St. Vincent de Paul leads men and women to join together to grow spiritually by offering person-to-person service to those who need help. A global Catholic lay organization, members serve in the tradition of its founder, Blessed Frédéric Ozanam, and patron, St. Vincent de Paul.
Since 1925, members across Dane County, who are known as Vincentians, have witnessed God’s love by embracing all works of charity and justice. The Society collaborates with other people of goodwill in relieving needs and addressing its causes, making no distinction in those served. Vincentians help neighbors in need by conducting home visits; by volunteering in the St. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry and Charitable Pharmacy; and by doing special charity projects in their parishes and neighborhoods. Conferences establish their own guidelines for assistance, allowing leeway to find creative solutions that fit the needs of their communities. Vincentians start each meeting with prayer and a spiritual reflection based on the teachings of our founders.
