Saint Vincent de Paul
Society: An
international association of Catholic laypersons engaging systematically
in personal service of the poor.
Founded
in May, 1833, when eight young men, students at the Sorbonne, assembled in
the office of the "Tribune Catholique" to formulate plans for the
organization of a society whose object should be to minister to the wants
of the Parisian poor.
The conference of SVdP at Holy Family
offers a number of outreach ministries to those in need, including the
Food Pantry, located on the Holy Family parish campus.
Contact Margaret Marshall through the
Church Office at 547-3735 for assistance or to volunteer.
