We, the family of St. Vincent de Paul Parish, as a faith-filled community, through the guidance of the Holy Spirit, worship the Father by imitating the Son.
We reach out to all people by evangelizing through the spiritual and corporal works of mercy. By our daily proclamation of the Gospel we shine with the love of Christ.
