Ministry - what we do

"In serving the poor you are doing what the Son of God did while He was on this earth." St Vincent de Paul

"The apostolic action of the Daughters of Charity draws its strength from contemplation, following the example of the Son of God who, intimately united with His Father, often went aside to pray".  Constitution C21a

Homeless ladyAs Daughters of Charity we are committed to sharing the Good News of the Gospel with those around us who are carrying the poverties of this Third Millennium. We try to do this by our presence and through loving, practical Vincentian service.

"In trying to respect the dignity of each individual and serving those in need, I find that their lives enrich me, challenge me and compel me to change."

"I just walk alongside people …   
 I'm there for them …  
We are there for one another."
