Within the Vincentian family there are many groups each with its own particular charism. They all however, share a common thread; a shared spirituality drawing from the teachings of Vincent de Paul who was either founder or inspiration for each. Each has a strong connection with the poor, and most if not all of the Vincentian family has a strong emphasis on charity; a simple, humble and practical charity.
Statement from the Vincentian Community
