The Society of St Vincent de Paul, St John XXIII Conference, aids those in need within Waseca County. We
are a Catholic organization that serves those in need regardless of creed, ethnic or social background, health,
gender, or political opinions. The Society gives immediate help but also seeks mid-term and long-term
solutions.
As members of the Society of St Vincent de Paul, we are called Vincentians. Our vocation is to follow Christ
through service to those in need and so bear witness to His compassionate and liberating love. Members show
their commitment through person-to-person contact. Vincentians serve in hope.
