St Anthony SVdP, since 1923. Food, supplies, emergency aid w/utilities and rent. Limited service area St. Anthony's conference of St. Vincent de Paul has been in existence in one form or another since 1923. Our mission is to stand in solidarity with and serve the poor as our founder Bl. Frederic Ozanam and our patron St. Vincent de Paul did. Our direct service is primarily in the form of utility assistance, though, as is in the mission statement of St. Vincent de Paul International, no form of service is alien to the society. St. Vincent de Paul is primarily a spiritual organization with the fruits of our spiritual development manifested in direct service to the poor.
