Your Support
Caring for the poor, the lonely, and the forgotten is an integral part of the Vincentian charism and mission. In the spirit of our founder, the work that we do in communities from Alaska to East Africa provides material and spiritual aid and comfort to thousands, and it would not be possible without the help of our generous partners. With your support, our confreres can continue to perform Jesus’ work for the poor.

Immediate Needs
Pope Leo XIV reminds us, “Charity is not just a promise. It is a present reality to be embraced with joy and responsibility.” Each of us is called to care for our brothers and sisters in need. We invite you to join in our mission to care for the poor and marginalized and experience the joy of serving others.
NEEDS IN EAST AFRICA
The generous spirit of our faithful friends and supporters has brought about a flowering of faith in Kenya and Uganda. Our Vincentian parishes there are thriving. But as these communities grow, their needs grow too. Once again, we ask for your help as we bring the Good News of Jesus to those we serve in East Africa.
Care of Seniors
Today, there more than 50 senior Vincentian priests and brothers living in retirement. Many of them have returned to Perryville, MO, with great fondness for the place where they spent their formative years in the seminary.
Prayer Ministry
The Vincentian Prayer Ministry allows you to give the gift of prayer to your friends and loved ones. Request a prayer ministry card to celebrate special occasions, to comfort during a time of illness or to remember a family member or friend who has died.
Our senior Vincentians will remember your intention in their daily prayers and Masses. Your loved one will receive a beautiful prayer card indicating that he or she is being remembered in our prayers.
Planned Giving
A planned gift is one way you may support the Vincentians and those they serve beyond your lifetime. If you are interested in making a planned gift that may have a impact in perpetuity, our staff is ready to assist you.
It is in a spirit of humility that we invite you to consider supporting our ministries and services with a special gift.
Contact us to learn more about how you may contribute in prayer, sacrifice or service to support the poor we serve.
Apostles of Charity
Sustainer Club
With our sustainer club, Apostles of Charity, you can easily make an on-going meaningful contribution to the work of the Vincentians of the Western Province.
Recurring donors are automatically enrolled in our Ministry of Prayer program, where they are prayed for daily by our priests and brothers.
Parish Appeal, 2025-26
Each year, Vincentian parishes across the Western Province partner with us to support the mission of St. Vincent de Paul.
More than a dozen Vincentian Parishes conduct an annual Parish Appeal. This year’s appeal funds three important initiatives, all of which further our mission:
- Early childhood education in Kenya
- Care for senior Vincentians
- Vocations and formation for the next generation of Vincentians
Fr. Kevin Fausz, C.M.
Our Conversations with Confreres series seeks to tell the story of the Vincentians through their individual stories. We invite you to listen and get to know our priests and brothers. In this video, Fr. Kevin Fausz, C.M., who serves as Treasurer for the Western Province and is pastor of three parishes in San Antonio, TX, talks about his pathway to the priesthood and some of the meaningful “moments of holiness” in his ministries.
