We had 30 young adults from the Diocese of Providence Ocean State Young Adult join us for a day filled with faith, service, and friendship! These amazing volunteers sorted and folded clothing, washed donation bins, made personalized notecards, household cleaning kits, and prison re-entry bags! We are so grateful for their help. 💙 Thank you Hannah for setting this up, Fr. Eric for Mass, and all of the young adults for their willingness to serve! 🙌🙌🙌

Last weekend our Rhode Island Vincentians gathered at Svdp St. Vincent de Paul Conference in Coventry for our Member Forum. Some of the topics included the spirituality of the home visit, updates and news from SVDP Rhode Island, and a Q&A with our Council President. The event concluded with lunch and fellowship. Thank you for all our members who attended and St. Vincent de Paul Conference for hosting us!

We were honored and blessed to have a very special guest visit us yesterday at SVdP Rhode Island! We appreciate the visit from Bishop Lewandowski, who was accompanied by our community partner, Jim Janz of Catholic Charities. During our time we were able to share more about how the Society serves our Rhode Island families in need and discuss ways we can continue to collaborate and serve alongside our Catholic community here in the Diocese of Providence, with Catholic Charities and our parishes.

Patricia Sickinger, our Council President, Steve Brayer, our Vice President, Fr. Giacomo Capoverdi, our Spiritual Advisor, and Renee Brissette, our Executive Director, deeply appreciate the Bishop’s support and encouragement of our mission to serve those in need.

Special thanks to the students at St. Luke’s School Barrington, RI for their school wide toiletry drive led by the 6th grade class to benefit our Program!

Happy Feast Day!

Today, we celebrate the Feast Day of St. Louise de Marillac.

St. Louise helped shape St. Vincent de Paul's legacy of service rooted in compassion, dignity and action. Through her work with the Daughters of Charity, she supported those who were poor, sick and marginalized, helping build systems of care that continue to serve communities today.

💙 Her example continues to inspire our mission.
