Saint Vincent de Paul

Saint Vincent de Paul was a 17th-century French priest known for his dedication to helping the poor and marginalized. He founded the Vincentians, a religious community focused on charitable work, and inspired countless others to serve those in need through acts of compassion, education, and support. His approach emphasized respect, dignity, and practical aid, often involving people directly in their community's well-being. Today, the Vincent de Paul Society continues his mission worldwide by providing food, clothing, shelter, and emotional support, embodying his belief that service to others is a core expression of faith.
