In one word - Christ

Reason tells us that we ought to love our neighbours, since they are children of God; since they are our brothers, members of the same human family; and since they have the same nature, dignity, destiny, and needs as ourselves. This love, or charity, should be both internal and external. The former wishes the neighbour well, and rejoices in his good fortune; the latter comprises all those actions by which any of the needs are supplied.

As a virtue, charity is that habit or power which disposes us to love God above all creatures for Himself, and to love ourselves and our neighbours for the sake of God.

The obligation to perform acts of charity is taught both by revelation and by reason - Words of Christ: "thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself".

The society's establishment was due partly to the desire of the founders to furnish a practical refutation of the reproaches directed against Christianity by the followers of Saint-Simon, Fourier, and other popular teachers of the day. "Show us your works!" taunted the St. Simonians. "We admit the past grandeur of Christianity, but the tree is now dead and bears no fruit." To this taunt Ozanam and his companions retorted by forming themselves into a Conference of Charity, later adopting the name of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul.

In organizing the Society, Antoine-Frédéric Ozanam, following the inspiration of its chosen patron St. Vincent de Paul, modelled the rule upon the same principles that were in vogue in the seventeenth century. The rules adopted were very simple; it was forbidden to discuss politics or personal concerns at the meetings, and it was settled that the work should be the service of God in the persons of the poor, whom the members were to visit at their own dwellings and assist by every means in their power. The service of the members was to embrace, without distinction of creed or race, the poor, the sick, the infirm, and the unemployed.

Saint Vincent de Paul (1581-1660), French priest, founder of the Congregation of the Mission, called the Vincentians or the Order of the Lazarists.

With the support of the family whom he served as chaplain, Vincent founded the Congregation of the Mission to preach to the peasants on the family's estates. A community of the congregation was formally established at the College des Bons-Enfants in Paris in 1626, where Vincent served as principal. The alternate name Lazarist Fathers was given to the group when it established headquarters at the former priory of Saint Lazare, in Paris, in 1632. Vincent not only headed the order but also founded with others several charitable organizations, notably the Daughters of Charity, formed under his direction in 1633. The foundling hospital of Paris owes its origin to this group. The Congregation of the Mission organized several seminaries for the training of priests as a result of work done by Vincent de Paul with young men about to be ordained. He was also concerned with relief work during the religious wars in France. His opposition to Jansenism is believed to have been responsible for its suppression. He died in Paris on September 27, 1660. He was canonized in 1737 and was named patron of works of charity in 1855. Vincent's feast day is September 27.

My son is only a few months old but we are already thinking ahead to the future. We live in a small town and the school system is not very good. The only other choice is to send our little one to a private school. The only private school in the area is St. Vincent Catholic Church and School, which seems to be a great alternative. We are not a religious family and I personally think it will be weird. What do you think? Take the private school route or live with the public school system? Thanks!

Does the school have an open house day for you to get a feel for the place.
I have 2 sons 1 in Catholic, 1 in public, I myself am a theology teacher in a Catholic High School. I find catholic schools loving and all embracing place of learning. I teach students of many faiths, christian, non-christian, non-practicing, atheist. It is not our goal to proletize. I would never want to change anyones religion. Rather to give students (teenagers) a place to question and express their ideas. Its an oppurtunity not given in public schools. We can share understandings celebrations of Ramadan and Christmas.
But bottom line without the fuzziness they are a great place to learn. They education is great. The support system is non-political. Its parents taking care of kids your kids. You'll love it and so will your little one.Its not weird at all.

I am catholic and I'm 14. We have always gone to the same church all of my life, until just recently. I never liked church because it was boring. We never had good priests and the music wasn't that good. Well, about 3 years ago, we got this new priest, who is Indian. Ever since he got here, things have really been going down hill at our church. My parents used to be really involved, but now their not anymore. We only go to our church every other weekend now during the school year because we have life teen and my parents and me and my brother are involved with that, but I have a feeling in the nest couple of years we won't have it anymore. Every other Sunday during the school and in the summer, we have been going to this big church (just to let you know how much bigger it is our weekly collection is 4,000 dollars and thiers is 50,000 dollars). They have 3 priests. they have one whoes 70 who is a really great priest and is my favorite, they have one who just got ordained and he is young and really good and they have this Indian guy and we don't go to his masses much. They also have 6 masses on the weekend and we only have 3 sometimes 4. Also, their music is AMAZING. It sounds like professional singers. We love it there. Well, anyways what I am trying to say is when we go to our church, I'm like, aww, We have to go to church, but with the big church I'm like yes we get to go to church. I just love it there. My dad is sending a letter to the bishop about how downhill our church has been going. It is amazing how much I like going to church now that we don't go to our home church now. I think in the future, we are probably going to become members of the big church. i love going to church when we go there, but I hate going to our home church. What are your thoughts on this? Have you ever had this kind of experience? Also, going to the big church, makes me feel really good, and it is brought me a lot closer to Christ. I feel welcome at the big church, wheras i don't and ours.

P.S. I don't want to say where I live, but I guess I can tell you the names of the churches. The one we have always gone to and don't like is called Immaculate Conception Catholic Church and the big one that we love is called St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church.
My family does not have anything against Indians. It is just that the priest at the church we are members at does not have any business skills and doesn't know how to run the church. He just isn't a very good priest. He is a nice man though. Also, there is a little bit of a langauge barrier. Also, the Indian priest at the big church is a good priest. It's just the language barrier. We like to be able to understand what the priest is saying.

You've seen the difference between and "alive" and a "dead" church. Churches should be full of people who genuinely care about each other, that have good teaching that draws you closer to God. Don't feel guilty about liking the bigger church. If you only liked it because it had a nicer building, better snacks during youth group, etc. then you're priorities would be out of whack but everything you listed is a legitimate reason to like going to church.

God bless!

1605 Turkish pirates captured him and took him to Tunis. He was sold as a slave

1607 escaped with his master, a renegade whom he converted.

1609 He was sent back to Franceon a secret mission to Henry IV; he became alminer to the Queen Marguerite of Valois, and was provided with the little Abbey of Saint-Léonard-de-Chaume.

1612 He entered the services of the Gondi, an illustrious French family, to educate the children of Philippe-Emmanuel de Gondi. He became the spiritual director of Mme de Gondi.

1617 He was recalled by the Gondi and returned to the Gondi, resuming the peasant missions.

1625 He gave on the galley of Bordeaux, as on those of Marseilles, a mission which was crowned with success

1628 At the request of the Bishop of Beauvais, Potierdes Gesvres, Vincent undertook to attempt at Beauvais the first of the retreats. (The general assembly of the French clergy expressed the wish that candidates for Holy Orders should only be admitted after some days of recollection and retreat.)

1635 He had establish a seminary at the Collége des Bons-Enfants. Assisted by Richelieu, who gave him 1000 crowns, he kept at Bons-Enfants only ecclesiastics studying theology (grand seminarie)

1641 He had sent some of his priests to the Bishop of Annecy to direct his seminary, and assisted the bishops to establish others in their dioceses by furnishing priests to direct them.

1645 Vincent left nothing undone to send them aid as early as 1645 he sent to the poor slaves of Barbary, among them a priest and a brother, who were followed by others. Vincent even had one of these invested with the dignity of consul in order that he might work more efficaciously for the slaves.
