On April 23, 1833, Frédéric Ozanam along with five other students of The School of Law at the Sorbonne, University of Paris, and Emmanuel Bailey, editor of the Tribune Catholique, founded the Conference of Charity, appointing Mr. Bailey as the first president of the organization. Shorthly thereafter, the Conference of Charity was renamed the Society of St. Vincent de Paul.
Twelve years later, in St. Louis, Missouri, at the request of Bishop Peter Richard Kenrick, Father Ambrose Heim established the Society of St. Vincent de Paul in the United States. Nineteen prominent Catholic laymen attended the first meeting at the Basillica of St. Louis, King of France, on November 30, 1845.
Today there are nearly 100,000 trained volunteers (Vincentians) of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul in the United States.
The 17 members of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul at St. Elizabeth Seton are men and women who strive to grow spiritually by offering person-to-person service to individuals in need. We are young and old; blessed with the awareness that our gifts (time, talent, and treasure) are to be shared with our brothers and sisters in need.
The Society of St. Vincent de Paul at St. Elizabeth Seton meets every Sunday morning at the Knights of Columbus Hall located next door to the church, from 9:45 AM to 10:45 AM, following the 8:30 AM Mass.
