OUR HISTORY

Our Vincentian Roots

Society of St. Vincent de Paul South Sudan logo

1833 - The Beginning

The Society of Saint Vincent de Paul traces its wider Vincentian tradition to 1833, when Frederic Ozanam and his companions began a movement of lay Catholic service to people experiencing poverty.

Development in Sudan

The Society later developed in Sudan, and in 1998 its presence was established within the Diocese in Southern Sudan as part of the wider Vincentian structure.

Growth in South Sudan

Following the development of South Sudan, SSVP South Sudan also operates as a registered local nonprofit organization implementing humanitarian and development programmes through professional staff and project-based partnerships.

Our Commitment Today

Today, the organization continues to draw inspiration from the Vincentian tradition of service, dignity, solidarity and support to vulnerable communities.

Our Structure

The wider Society structure in South Sudan includes the National Council, Central Councils and Conferences serving through parishes and chapels.

Guided by faith and compassion, rooted in the Vincentian spirit, we continue to serve and walk with the most vulnerable.
