Call Directions Website

Society of St Vincent de Paul, Conference of SFX, Petaling Jaya SSVP-SFX, an NGO and Catholic in nature, aims at lifting up the lives of the Poor and Needy in every way possible via various empowering projects.

This page is aimed at disseminating information on our activities. Besides running an education/boarding home, Rumah Pengajian Xavier, RPX, which comes with a lot of challenges, we also provide various aids to the Poor and Needy in our community. The urban poor faces a lot of difficulties in this economic situation. We provide what we can with the donations we collect from various avenues. Before we adopt our Friends/Families in Need (FIN, in short), we do home visits to ascertain their needs. Then we pray and discern during our meeting how best to help them. We have also a Service Centre in Sri Sentosa, Ozanam Service Centre/OSC, where we have a Learning Centre to help the weak school pupils living around the area, provide aid for EPF/SOCSO/Welfare issues. Lately we have embarked in Women's Empowering programme. We will be launching a business venture for single mothers, widow, wives from the underprivileged sector in the area. We are selling flowers, new/used good clothes/bags, costume jewelleries, etc, some new, some old, mostly donated. We also do the sale online as well.

Celebrating the Feast Day of St Vincent de Paul 🙏🏻❤️

Every year, the members of the Society of St Vincent de Paul, Conference of St Francis Xavier, come together to celebrate this meaningful feast day.

Today, we were especially blessed to receive a special blessing from Fr Alvin during the 6.30pm Mass.

United as brothers and sisters, bound by the Vincentian spirit of love, humility and service, we are reminded of our calling to bring Christ to the poor and to share God’s love with those in need.

It was truly a special evening to come together, strengthen our bonds and celebrate our shared mission.

The food was simple, yet delicious — made even more meaningful by the joy of being together. ❤️

St Vincent de Paul, pray for us! 🙏🏻

Celebrating Joseeph — A Young Man with a Generous Heart ❤️

Joseeph, one of the students supported by SSVP, together with his mum and two siblings, were among the special guests at a dinner fellowship hosted by the SFX Migrant Ministry on 27 September 2026, following the 5.30pm Mass.

The fellowship celebrated the 112th World Day of Prayer for Migrants and Refugees, and brought together members and representatives from the Myanmar, Indonesian and Filipino communities.

Joseeph was the winner of the SFX Migrant Ministry Logo Competition. Our parish priest, Rev. Fr Alvin Ng SJ, presented him with a RM500 cash prize.

When asked, “What are you going to do with the money you won?”, Joseeph’s answer revealed his loving and filial heart: “I’m going to give my mum and siblings a treat.” ❤️

Joseeph has recently completed his Diploma in Teaching and is currently doing his internship. He will soon embark on his degree studies.

Wishing Joseeph every success as he continues his journey in education. May God bless him abundantly and guide him as he pursues his dreams! 🙏✨

⚽ A Great Start for the RPX Boys with Beyond90!

It was an exciting afternoon for the boys of Rumah Pengajian Xavier (RPX) as they took part in their first Beyond90 football training session at University of Malaya (UM).

Organised by football coach Gavin, Beyond90 provides children from homes and challenging backgrounds with the opportunity to enjoy structured football training completely free of charge.

Football is a favourite among many of our boys, so they were thrilled to take part in drills focusing on passing, shooting, dribbling and ball control, followed by a friendly match. Although rain and lightning brought the session to an early end, the boys had a wonderful time!

We were especially encouraged by the feedback from Gavin and fellow coach Frau:

“We were so impressed by their determination and also their great manners.”

Beyond football skills, the programme gives our boys opportunities to make new friends, build teamwork, develop discipline and learn the importance of commitment and respect.

For the boys, it was simply a great afternoon of football, fun and friendship. ❤️

A big thank you to Gavin and the Beyond90 team for opening this programme to our boys, and to everyone who helped make their participation possible.

We hope this is the beginning of a meaningful journey for our boys with Beyond90. The lessons learned on the field — teamwork, perseverance, discipline, friendship and respect — can stay with them long after the final whistle.

Well done, boys! ⚽👏 We look forward to the next session!

SSVP Sponsor A Student Campaign — Thank You!

Our campaign has officially ended — and we are overwhelmed by your generosity!

Thanks to the encouraging response from our sponsors, we are hopeful of securing support for all our college students, as well as the boys of Rumah Pengajian Xavier.

A heartfelt thanks to Father Alvin, our Parish Priest, for his unwavering support, and to all our SSVP members who gave their time and energy to make this campaign possible.

Most of all, thank you to our parishioners, sponsors and well-wishers for answering the call to support these young people.

Through this UAP3 exercise, we are doing more than providing financial assistance. We are nurturing hope, empowering young people through education and helping them build a brighter future.

Together, we can break the cycle of poverty — one student at a time.

The boys at a Rumah Pengajian Xavier were blessed with a warm and generous visit from the World Malayalee Federation Malaysia Chapter.

The members came bearing thoughtful gifts — pillows, beddings, towels and food provisions — bringing not only much-needed essentials, but also their kindness and care.

The boys were treated to a delicious lunch of chicken biryani, followed by curry puffs and vadai for tea time. But beyond the food and gifts, it was the time spent over lunch sharing stories and conversation around the table which made the visit truly special.

A heartfelt thank you to the World Malayalee Federation Malaysia Chapter for your generosity, your time and, most importantly, for making the boys feel remembered and cared for.

A Place to Breathe — A Young Writer Finds His Voice

Today, 15 August 2026, was a very special day for Rumah Pengajian Xavier (RPX) as we celebrated the launch of ‘Colour Me Different’, a collection of short stories written by 15 young Malaysians — including our very own Sajeshan Mahenthiran, fondly known as Shan.

The book was launched at BookXcess, IOI Damansara Mall, Petaling Jaya.

Shan came to RPX from a broken family, seeking a place to stay and, more importantly, making an affirmative decision to excel in his studies. We welcomed him into our home, and today he is a Form Four student — quiet and unassuming, yet determined, thoughtful and remarkably mature for his age.

When I read his short story, ‘A Place to Breathe’, tears welled up in my eyes. It is a short story filled with depth, emotion and vulnerability — written passionately from the heart. Through his words, Shan has given us a glimpse into a young soul that has experienced much, yet continues to hope, dream and find his voice.

His family members, counsellor, teachers and former guardian, Mr David, were all present today to support him. We are immensely proud of this young man and grateful to everyone who has walked alongside him on his journey.

Shan, keep writing. Continue to nurture your gift for writing and journalism. Your voice matters, and your story matters.

We believe in you, Shan. Keep going — we will support you all the way. ❤️

Colour Me Different is available at BookXcess, IOI Damansara Mall, Petaling Jaya.

Finding Riches in Simplicity ❤️♻️

Meet Nagama, a 70-year-old resident of Desa Mentari who lives alone. Every day, she walks through two blocks of PPR flats, collecting discarded plastic bottles, containers, cardboard, paper and glass left along corridors, pavements and elevators.

Her daily rounds do more than earn her about RM30 a month from recycling. They help keep her neighbourhood clean, care for the environment, and keep her active and healthy.

When we visited her home, we found bags of recyclables filling her living room and spare bedroom. Her flat was simple, with old, worn furniture. Yet, what stood out most was not what she lacked, but the joy and gratitude she carried.

Nagama never complained. Instead, she counted her blessings.

As Vincentians, we often think we bring hope during our home visits. But sometimes, those we visit become our greatest teachers. Nagama reminded us that true wealth is not measured by possessions, but by a grateful heart and a life lived with quiet dignity.

“The poor are our masters.” — St Vincent de Paul

SSVP & RPX at SFX Family Day – A Day of Service, Teamwork and Smiles! 💚

What a wonderful day at the SFX Family Day!

SSVP set up a stall selling our ever-popular kacang puteh, while also sponsoring a stall for Samaritan Hope Home (SHH), where visitors enjoyed a delicious variety of homemade food and freshly baked cookies.

Our RPX boys were simply superb! Splitting into teams, they enthusiastically promoted and sold kacang puteh, helped sell SHH’s cookies, and even took on the important responsibility of guiding parishioners to segregate their waste correctly into compost, plastics and general waste. As if that wasn’t enough, they rounded off the day by selling recycled bags!

Phew… that’s a lot of selling and serving in one day! 😊

Your enthusiasm, teamwork, cheerful spirit and willingness to serve made a real difference. More than just raising funds, you demonstrated responsibility, care for creation, and the joy of serving others.

A heartfelt thank you to our sis Jocelyn, volunteers, supporters and everyone who stopped by our stalls. Your generosity continues to make a difference in the lives of those we serve.

Bravo, boys! We are so proud of you! 👏💚

Samaritan Hope Home will be having a stall next to SSVP stall on SFX Family Day. They are selling super delicious food.

We have tasted their sheperd’s pie and sambal belacan. 👍 Their pies are really good and will be available both hot and frozen. Their frozen pies can be kept in the freezer to be enjoyed on other days.

The sambal belacan has no perservatives and can be eaten straight from the bottle. You can also use it to fry with lady fingers or other vegetables. Yummy yummy 😋

Please support them. Good food good cause. All proceeds go towards their Street Ministry outreach and Ladies’ Shelter Home.
