Sept 27: Feast of St. Vincent de Paul 2024

On Friday, 27 September 2024, the Feast of St. Vincent De Paul, members of the Vincentian Family came together to celebrate the beloved Saint’s Feast Day. The Daughters of Charity (Marsfield) organised a gathering at Elizabeth Hall where all lay members of the Vincentian Family were invited – including members of the AMM in Sydney. The evening started with some prayers and reflections (prepared by Sr Rosa, DC), which contained some reflections on the life and writings on Saint Vincent De Paul as well as some related hymns which participants sung/hummed to together.
Following the prayers and reflections was a delicious dinner and lots of time for fellowship and joyful conversations. The Daughters also sung a traditional hymn “Vincentio” to commemorate this Feast Day. Many of the lay members got to engage with the Daughters of Charity as well as catch up with one another. It was a great celebration filled with lots of laughter, learning new things about St Vincent, delicious food, and unity in the spirit of St Vincent.
