Vincentian Connection's winter issue is out!
The winter 2021 issue of Vincentian Connection is hopeful as it looks toward St. Vincent de Paul's future, celebrating members of our community that have gone from homeless to housed.
The winter issue, which came out December 15, spotlights two individuals who found support ending their homelessness through SVdP's transitional shelter Ozanam Manor and SVdP's new Social Work Services program. The issue also takes you behind the scenes of Renewing Hope: A Virtual Community Gathering, which took place in lieu of the traditional Restoring Hope Breakfast. Meet three of the individuals highlighted in the program, and hear from them about what renews their hope this season.
