Membership and Conferences – St Vincent de Paul Society – Good Works

Conference members meet regularly, usually weekly but at least fortnightly and no work of charity is foreign to them. Together they visit people in their homes, in hospitals, institutions or wherever else they may be found needing aid or comfort. Conference work is not limited to home visitation, members also meet and pray together at others times. To read more about the role of prayer in conferences please visit Spirituality of the Society.

Frassati Group

A growing young adult organisation is called the Frassati Society.  The name comes from a young man named Pier Giorgio Frassati (now blessed).  Young people looking for a role model and someone to identify with will find Frassati a vibrant outdoorsman who loved Christ, served the poor and got involved civically.  He lived in Italy until the age of 24 where he contracted polio from the poor that he frequently served.  The Frassati Society embraces four marks of Pier Giorgio’s life:

• Prayer and Devotion to the Blessed Sacrament
• Outdoor Adventures
• Service to the poor and vulnerable
• Political Involvement that embrace Christian ideals
