What I learned from walking in St. Louise’s footsteps
Vincent de Paul Heritage Week 2024
Vincent was a trailblazer, a true change agent of his time. He saw hope and possibility despite the challenges of his era and dedicated his 79 years to bridging the gap between the world as it was and the world as it should be. Four hundred years later, DePaul University continues his legacy by educating the next generation of trailblazers.
Join us from Sept. 22 through 27 for Vincentian Heritage Week—a time of games, reflection, and more. Save the Date! More to come….
Come celebrate our shared Vincentian heritage with delicious food and great community at our annual St. Vincent de Paul Prayer Breakfast! This year, we will welcome as our keynote speaker, Dr. Valerie Johnson, Associate Provost, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion who will share how she integrates the mission into her professional and personal life.
This will be a great chance to hear Dr. Johnson and join together in community, gathered together for the sake of a mission. All are welcome!
