The Vice-Province of Kenya cordially invites all confreres, collaborators, and the faithful to join us in the solemn celebration of the Feast of St. Vincent DePaul and 27th Anniversary of Depaul Centre Nairobi.

Date: Saturday, 27th September 2025, from 10:00 AM
Venue: DePaul Centre

On this special occasion, we gather to honor the life and legacy of our Founder, St. Vincent DePaul, whose vision of service to the poor continues to inspire our mission today. Together in prayer and thanksgiving, we renew our commitment to live out the Vincentian charism of faith, charity, and service.

On September 27th we celebrate the feast of St. Vincent de Paul, which also marks the day he died in Paris, France in 1660.

In 1617, St. Vincent founded the Confraternities of Charity, and in 1625 he founded the Congregation of the Mission, (CM), his community of priests and brothers.

In 1633, St. Vincent de Paul co-founded the Daughters of Charity with St. Louise de Marillac. St. Vincent is the Patron Saint of all works of charity.

We look forward to your presence as we celebrate this day of grace and communion.
