OUR VISION:
As a Catholic lay organization we will embrace the world in a network of charity, serving Christ in the suffering, the poor, and the marginalized, bringing them love and respect, aid and development, hope and joy, in a more just society. We also seek to deepen our spirituality and the mutual love and support among members, so that, seeing how we serve those in need with one mind and heart, people are attracted to the Society and to Christ who animates it.

OUR MISSION:
The Society of Saint Vincent de Paul is a lay Catholic organization whose mission is: To live the Gospel message by serving Christ in the poor with love, respect, justice and joy

OUR VALUES:
The mission of the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul implies that as Vincentians we: • See Christ in anyone who suffers • Come together as a family • Have personal contact with the poor • Help in all possible ways

LOGO (seen to the left)
The National Council of Canada has adopted the logo of the fish. The logo has the following meaning:

• FISH – The symbol of Christianity and represents the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul
• EYE – The eye of the fish is the vigilant eye of God seeking to help the poor in our midst
• TAIL CROSSING –The tail or tie-knot represents unity among members and the union with the poor
