“Knowledge of the poor and needy is not gained by pouring over books or in discussion with politicians, but by visiting the homes where they live, sitting by the bedside of the dying, feeling the cold they feel, and learning from their lips the causes of their woes.” ~ Blessed Frederic Ozanam (1813-1853)
St. Vincent de Paul Conferences
What is a Conference?
Conferences are parish based groups of 5-50 laymen and women who seek to grow spiritually by becoming personally involved in helping the poor in their communities. Conference members, called Vincentians, provide direct services and referrals to poor and needy individuals and families. In the parish, Conferences work closely with their pastor and congregation to serve people in need. Conferences obtain funding through regular and special collections in the parish, fundraising activities, and Vincentian member contributions. Each Conference decides what programs and services it will offer based on the needs in the local area.
