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.

Goodbye, Hello
The closing Mass at St. Joseph's Parish will be celebrated at 11 a.m. on Sunday, 30 December 2012, by Bishop Donald Pelletier, M.S., who has a long connection with our parish. You can read more about his life and ministry here. Please join us for a potluck lunch afterwards in the lower church.
The inaugural Mass for St. Vincent de Paul Parish will take place at Holy Ghost Church at 11 a.m. on 1 January 2013. There will be a social following the Mass in the lower church hall- your food donations are welcome!
Also, in case you missed it, the Sun Chronicle recently ran an article discussing the closing of St. Joseph's Church, viewable by clicking here. Overall, the tone was positive, although the comments about the suddeness of the merger are misleading (the proposal was publically announced in late September).
