St. Vincent de Paul Trumbull County Ohio

Mission Statement: Respecting the dignity of each person, the Society of St. Vincent de Paul Northeast Ohio District Council brings hope and help to those in need, so they may achieve stability and move toward self-sufficiency.

Vision Statement: Through our works, the vision of SVdP Northeast Ohio District is to change the face of charity and grow in faith, through service to others; one neighbor at a time.

Inspired by Gospel values, the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, a Catholic lay organization, leads women and men to join together to grow spiritually by offering person-to-person service to those who are needy and suffering in the tradition of its founder, Blessed Frederic Ozanam, and patron, St. Vincent de Paul.

As a reflection of the whole family of God, Members, who are known as Vincentians, are drawn from every ethnic and cultural background, age group, and economic level. Vincentians are united in an international society of charity by their spirit of poverty, humility and sharing, which is nourished by prayer and reflection, mutually supportive gatherings and adherence to a basic Rule.

Organized locally, Vincentians witness God’s love by embracing all works of charity and justice. The Society collaborates with other people of good will in relieving need and addressing its causes, making no distinction in those served because, in them, Vincentians see the face of Christ.
