St. Vincent de Paul Parish – Chicago

Chicago was only 38 years old as a city, and the great fire was merely four years in the past when a Vincentian priest came to establish the new parish of St. Vincent de Paul. http://www.stvdep.org/people/history.html

Our Mission

We, the people of St. Vincent de Paul Parish, gather in the Lord’s name and respond to the call of the Spirit to proclaim the Good News.

We live out our call to proclaim in three ways:

first, as we join together
to share the Word and approach the table of the Lord;

second, through the witness of our daily lives as we strive for holiness;

and finally, as people who hear the call of Jesus
to love God and neighbor,
we commit ourselves to actions for justice.
