OUR MISSION: We, the Catholic community of Saint Vincent de Paul Parish, are a family made up of many nationalities and ethnic backgrounds called together as one body by the Holy Spirit to experience and to share the saving effects of God’s grace in our lives. As disciples of Christ and following our patron, Saint Vincent de Paul, we profess our faith openly and proudly; promote social justice in our community; and bring the compassion of Jesus to all our brothers and sisters in need.
