Facing a sudden financial crisis with nowhere to turn is terrifying, but no one in our community has to go through it alone.
This short snippet, from a longer series of videos, reveals how our Conference is keeping the human connection alive in a fast-paced world. Our dedicated members provide a vital lifeline to neighbors-in-need with old-fashioned neighborly care by visiting with them in their home.
The Importance of the Home Visit
The Society of St. Vincent de Paul was formed when a group of young college students committed themselves to follow Christ’s example, declaring “Let us go to the poor!”
The Home Visit remains the central work of Members and Conferences of the Society of St Vincent de Paul. On Home Visits, Vincentians do not merely “stand with” the poor; we sit with them, we listen to them, we pray with them, and we seek to help them in the best way possible.
If you feel called to join the Vincentians on our journey, learn more on the Volunteer page.
